Replace all injectors
Hi All,
I had posted that my 90 Vette failed emissions (freaking Houston), and it all points to one fuel injector. The question is, should I go ahead a replace all injectors since the top of the engine will be torn apart and I'll get hit with $500 in labor (no matter what). I'm thinking yes, but am also miffed about the cost of the injectors (about $100 each, does this sound right?). Total estimated cost 500 labor, 800 injectors and about 50 (for gaskets and seals) -- 1350! Empty3 |
