Default Accel injectors.

Hi,

​​​​​What is your opinion on Accel injectors in general?
Will 26lb be compatible for my 86?
I need fast shipping and Amazon has only these or 21lb.
Thanks.

For that level of investment and the amount of work to change them on a TPI, I would go to Fuel Injector Connection and just wait the extra time.

Not that I have any bad experience with Accel injectors. I just would refrain from getting something like this from Amazon.

I do, however, have positive experience with FIC including technical assistance by telephone with an actual injector technician when I had a question. He was even grumpy sounding - the mark of a true technician. A lot of members of this forum have also good experience with them.
There are other vendors with good reviews also.

Thank you for your replay.
I'll consider that.

I would also talk to FIC. I bought mine from them.

But I recall no one having issues with Accel stuff, its usually all good parts.

I bought a set of Delphi injectors for my L98 from FIC. They are a drop in replacement for the original Multec units. Very satisfied with quality and performance.

I had a set years ago that had issues and I had to put back in the stock injectors to run right the Accels were a waste of money in my case, I have ok luck with Accel ignition products just the bad experience with the injectors.
