Patient is a 1985 4kq.
Spec'd fuel injectors are Audi #026 133 551 / Bosch 0437 502 045 and have coarse threads and the metal shroud installed on the tip.
This injector replaces Audi #049 133 551A / Bosch 0437 502 023, which also has coarse threads but no shroud on the tip.
The "045" injector is $52. The "023" injector is $29.
Questions:
--Do both injectors have the same fuel delivery rates and the opening pressures?
--Can I just remove the metal shrouds from my old injectors and put them on the new "023" injectors(new gasket, of course)? Any positive or negative experience doing this?
--Anyone have a link to a site listing Bosch injector specs? I called Bosch USA and a tech couldn't help. Did some web searching, but no luck so far. Checked Scott's site, but no info there.
Please reply to the list so that all can share.
