motorcraft injectors ´91
Was about to order injectors from injectors4u, but they didn´t have those rochesters in stock (only 5 instead of 8). But they offered me motorcraft f55e-a2d or a2e instead for the same price (25$ ea.). Does anyone have experience with those?

I don't remember the exact part number off hand but that sounds like the set I bought, flow matched at 22.3lbs. If these are the same and I think they are, wow what a difference when I put them in my 91. Great fast service, good communications and you would have to look long and hard to see they are re-manufactured. I would buy these again!
Good Luck

Thanks bd 2626. I´m in Sweden so it´s not the easiest to get parts over here. I´m not out on the forum that much but I read about lots off stuff in the tech section. Put the radio in after repair but now it won´t shut off when I turn off the ignition and open the door, must have missed something or a switch is hanging, donno...

Vette079: Make sure you KNOW the flow rating of the injectors you are going to buy. Ford rates their flow at 39 PSI and GM rates their flow at 43 PSI. You need 22 lb hr injectors rated at 43 PSI for your 91 model year. What happened to your stock injectors?

I ordered my injectors through FiveOmotorsports and yes they carry the Bosch injectors with the Ford #'s on them. I believe I got the set for $250, very fast and friendly service. They have a lot more stuff than whats on their website, heres they're number 562-867-4999.

I wouldn't order anything from them. They sell used crap.

I suggest you buy new ones from summit or from your choice of suppliers. You are too far away to be having any issues w/remans. You do need to make sure to get close to stock spec. on flow numbers and all FMS are manufactured from Bosch (as CC stated). (thought the pink tops" were closest) Hopefully some one will chime in for you w/tthe exact compare P.N.

I agree with mseven on purchasing reliable injectors due to your location. Here is a thread you may find interesting:

Yes, the Vette years 89 thru 91 have an injector that has a high failure rate. However, I would not change out your injectors based upon this information. Instead, I would check the resistance of each injector on an annual basis. If the resisance is the same on all eight coils (16.5 +/- .3 ohms), continue to drive the car. Your injectors may not fail! The use of injector cleaner seems to accelerate the failure of insulation on the coil wires.

buy a new set through summit racing if they have the "pink" tops as stated those will be an exact match (22 lb) if not but the 24 lb injectors (light blue) tops and you'll be fine. its amazing to me how much better quality fords stuff was in the mid 80's thru mid 90's.

vette079: Your next problem will be what injectors to install in your car. I strongly recommend you stay with the stock flow rate of 22 lb hr. Here is a thread on a possible source of injectors:
