Ferrari Mailing List: Re: shopping for new injectors for 308

[David Handa (dave]

Well worth doing.  Use the part number previously given, and try searching a few more websites, you may find an even better deal.  My quick check shows them for $27 here:

http://www.europartsdirect.com/

Free shipping in the USA with a $50 order…not sure about Canada.

 

Worth doing, my 328GTS used the same exact injectors and ran much stronger above 5000 rpm to redline.   It also helped correct a hot start problem, as a couple were leaking.

Subject: [Ferrari] shopping for new injectors for 308

 

1981 308 GTSi: I want to change my injectors. I'm still waiting for my sensor plate (remember ?) and I've just received the gasket from Superperformance in U.K. for the whole metering device assembly. I think a good clean up should do some good, but I've had the car for 10 years and I have no idea what the former owner did or did not do. So, I may as well change them for 8 new ones.

 

I was told I need the same injectors as the Mercedes-Benz 380 SL-SEL-SLC 1980-85. I need confirmation on this BEFORE I order them.

AutohausAZ has them for $29.26 each. They don't have a Ferrari list price. I have seen REAL CRAZY prices for those injectors when the name Ferrari is mentioned. Anywhere from $55.00 (here in Montreal) to over $100. (on Ebay) for example.

 

What else do I need to buy with the injectors ? I know I need the seals, are they the same as on the 380 ? And guides ?

 

Thank you!
