Default dealer service - injectors question
if i dropped my car of at the local chevy dealer and they wound up replacing the injectors.... and the used gm parts

the factory parts are still the same shitty steel internal injectors that would become a problem with ethanol gas again or ?

The 90 injectors are the ones prone to issues.

No change in injectors until 93MY. Changed then for alcohol fuel resistance

I really hope your not thinking of letting a dealer service your car..

Yes, if you did they would probably replace them with the same lousy injectors..I would never bring a ZR-1 to a dealer for service...

I've taken my z to a local dealer and it's been fine. I bring my own parts, they install them, no real issues.
