I'm thinking of buying a set of 80K mile 215hp injectors from someone and I was wondering if, with that many miles can they still be expected to flow good as aset or should I take them to a shop to have them checked?

 

That's not very many miles, but with any used injectors it would be a good idea to have them checked.

 

Steve is right, a faulty injector can ruin an engine rather quickly. A friend had an injector go bad on one of his Volvo's; where the broken fuel pattern squirted on the cylinder wall it eroded a groove and ruined both the piston and cyl liner.

 

I would Have them Checked. I am getting ready to send mine out. I found a place that will do them at a good price and has a quick turn around on them. PM me if you want. I am not sure if I can give out Company Names on the forum.

i sold my 215 injectors to a guy here on the board. i think he just droped them in and used them. they had a little over 200k on them and were running fine.

 

gunracer yes you did and they still run great even the truck starts easier in the cold.

 

My local John Deere dealer will check injectors for $3/ea.
No excuse not to do it, the trouble it could save is well worth $18
