It depends on the flow rate of the injectors. Keep in mind that different injector manufacturers used different standardized pressures to rate their injector flow rates. This means that you cannot compare injectors from different manufacturers directly.

Have you thought of getting a set of reman or new if you feel like it from FIC? I'd get reman and have them tested and cleaned every 3 years or so.

no flames, but personally, I think every 3 years is a bit much unless I notice some performance issues that might be related to the injectors, however, for what it cost to clean and "recondition" it's as cheap, or cheaper, to toss them and get another set of boschIII's from FIC. last time I checked, FIC gets $22.50 (per injector) to clean and test - 8 X 22.5 = $180 (plus, i'm thinking maybe, 2-way shipping) https://fuelinjectorconnection.com/c...jector-service . a rebuilt set is $170 (plus 1-way shipping) - https://fuelinjectorconnection.com/c...sch-design-iii . one could also sell the old set on fleabay as "cores" for $30 or so, making it even cheaper yet to "toss-em".
You have a point there. I have them checked and maybe costs more but it helps to monitor how badly the injectors get clogged up. So if every time it loses 20cc in 3 years but this time it jumped to 60cc, I have to start finding a better fuel source and change my usual location. Also, I'm not sure how much reman injectors cost for me. I am using 42pph. Still, it won't hurt to ask Jon later today
