Fuel injector o-ring substitute?
« on: April 20, 2012, 07:02:44 AM »
So it appears that replacement o-rings for the K11 fuel injectors are in the $4-5 range from BMW...
Any other, more reasonable choices out there?

Well, if you have the injectors out, you could send them to Mr.Injector for rehab service and then they come back with new o-rings.

The 0-rings for the fuel injectors on a 1990 Mustang 302 c.i. engine gauge out the same as the new ones Mr. Injector had installed. And they were available for $2.89 for four at a local parts store.
