gti 1.8 8v injectors pb
« on: 10 March 2009, 21:34 »
hi, while stripping down my head i noticed that one of my injectors is completely different to the other three, it is green in colour, while the other three are biege, it also has four holes in the bottom whereas the other three only have one. As you can imagine this confused me slightly, does anyone have any idea why someone would have fitted a different injector? Could someone tell me the part number of the injectors that are supposed to be in there.

thankyou in advance

there are several different part numbers that were fitted over the years, chances are its still a digi injector its just off a different age car!  Heres 3 I know of:
Volkswagen MK2 digifant = 191.8cc/min, Bosch 0 280 150 757, VW 037 906 031A
Volkswagen MK2 digifant = 197cc/min, Bosch 0 280 150 903
Volkswagen MK2 digifant = 197 or 218.1cc/min?, Bosch 0 280 150 902, VW 037 906 031C

injectors  work as a set  if one is diffrent it buggers it up,  that cyininer will run lean or rich  if the injector is a diffrent size
all the VW's have gone bar 1.
