Re: Can i use 5ktq injectors on an UrQ metering head?



Michael,

Yes, I think they'll work, but I'd have to agree with Phil here.  Why don't
you get the correct part numbers and order some new ones.  Not too bad.  I
just replaced all mine about 6 mos ago.

Only clue... Get them through Marin Motorsports.  They take new injectors
(which are much better....viton tipped with viton (green) seals) and flow
tests them to make sure they are all spraying at the exact same rate.  Don't
have the tendancy to leak down like the metal tipped ones (old style).  Same
PN's though, I believe.

Anyways, Marin Motorsports will charge you a little extra, but I think it
might be worth it.  My friend got his there and they weren't much more than
I paid for mine.  Maybee $30 an injector.  Anyways, I got mine from
1-800-VW-PARTS for your info.  Were very cheap.

Later,
Dan
