These are 100% absolutely brand new, never unpacked from the factory container, never installed in any car or motor anywhere, never had any fuel go thru them and never had any voltage applied to the solenoid (unless Bosch tests them that way at the factory).

As shown, the specs are virtually identical to OEM. The infinitesimal and inconsequential variation is under 1% across the board, a figure that is below standard manufacturing tolerance. Over 600 of them have been installed in various flavors of BMWs with excellent results.

 

 

These are single-pintle injectors. The later Lucas units with 4-hole discs can be retrofitted to these. The Lucas part was developed for fuel economy, not power. These are better and more durable IMHO, send a cone of aerosol straight at the intake valve, not a cloud of mist into the plenum.

 

The pintle shroud is an improved design, too. It’s an aluminum nozzle that is crimped tight onto a groove on the business end of the injector. The OEM piece has flimsy plastic baskets that are known to fall off and wind up in the combustion chamber.

 

Calculate how many times your injectors fire in 100,000 miles. IIRC it’s around 70 million cycles each. And recognize that there’s no such thing as a rebuilt injector. Since they’re hermetically sealed, they can’t be opened up in order to replace components. All that the “rebuilding” vendors do is clean them and replace screens and o-rings, then sort them by flow by picking thru the pile for a batch with similar results. They have still cycled many millions of times and whatever wear has occurred is still present.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note the overspray; they came off the assembly line that way. OEM parts aren’t concerned with cosmetics.
