Lucas Recon injectors
« on: July 11, 2009, 03:03:41 AM »
Just looking at these Lucas Recon injectors on eBay, and was wondering if anyone knew whether they will fit the 95 318iS? the seller doesn't know...

here is the link:
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=390055768434

the Part ID is: Lucas D3762FA

Cheers,
Jester

They look compatible, but they don't say anything about installing new filters in the injectors...maybe they did but I'd send them an email just to be sure.  You might just want to save a few dollars and get properly rated ones that are flow-matched and overhauled right instead of just cleaned up.

If you do want to save some money, I'd suggest the 4-hole Bosch EV6 design in the fuel injector thread on this site.  I don't think you can use that if you have the air injection shrouds though.  Part numbers are all over the place in this thread.

i just read more of the item, and they do mention that they have new filters. in the part where it says "service parts fitted" it mentions that they have new filters and new o-rings that will be fitted before dispatch.

but in your opinion, they will fit? i looked up the fuel injector part IDs on http://www.RealOEM.com but couldn't match either my injectors, or the 318i injectors to the IDs they gave, so i wasn't sure.

I have just made the injectors swap with some Vectra 2.5V6 ones. I can confirm these will fit, but I don't see why you would want to make the swap. 318IS runs 200 cc injectors. These are 195cc.
