Title: Injector identification
Post by: jcassity on July 25, 2013, 03:53:22 PM
what appication are the "E6" injectors below?

these are much darker in color and exactly come out to be "Brown" , not orange.
The "F2" injector is a 19Lb orange top and not the topic.

physically the two injectors are different but overall the same length wtih the same tops / bottoms.  I assume the E6 has a much  more healty solenoid where the F2 has a smaller solenoid.

to be honest, i believe i found the hot spot of all things fuel injection related..................
apparently there were two types of these 19Lb injectors out there, one was 18.5Lb

gotta scroll way down to the actual "FORD" charts

can anyone confirm the shorter "E6TE" injector is ok or which one i show is the better choice?

the link i supplied show two different types of 19lb injectors, one being 18.5lbs and the other being 19.

Just a revision......Shouldn't be any issue even if you mixed and matched them.

What you have is a set of 19LB injectors. They come in several ford engines and use the early EV1 Bosch connectors. Basically both are identical and will work fine. But in my experience i would trash all of them for a new set . There are some injectors that have 4 jets that work a bit better. We use Pencil injectors that is what i call them. They have a different connector and are much slimmer and are all plastic. With your new build i would use brand new injectors and not take the chance. just me!!

Ball and disc injectors operate much faster do not pen 15e up as easily as a pintel injector.

thats a pretty heavy cost adder to the project, your right though, it is the right thing to do.

In the long run new injectors are cheap insurance. If you ever seen a lean cylinder melt a piston you would agree. Thanks

Especially with a power adder...my buddy was going to dump in some used 24#'s from the junkyard into his procharged '95 GTS.

I told him to dig a little deeper for new injectors, and he did. Hate to see a new engine or pistons get hurt over some junk..

They're easy enough to change, and for the cost of a new/rebuilt engine...well worth the expense.
