Are these injectors a good buy?

Post by clipper47 »

I saw these on ebay and thought that maybe they would be a good upgrade but have no idea. Is this just a bunch of hype or will they truly make a difference. My car runs fine but it does have a bit of a rough idle.

I fitted these to my 88 635 with teh B35 engine. I feel they made a small difference, although I don't think the old injectors were gummed up as they had been rebuilt a few years before. If your injectors are currently suspect or not been cleaned for a long time you will probabally notice more of a difference, but you could just get your stock set rebuilt!

Cheers
