Message	not. Basically injector 5 is dead. So I'm going to replace all 6 injectors, barring my car doesn't get crushed by a tree during the storm. But I'm torn on whether or not if I should go ahead and get the new style 300º injector kit or order the old style, new connectors and do one of the procedures to cut the power to the injectors when the car is off. Going with the old style saves me almost $400 but will I have to worry about them failing again with all this ethanol in the gas? I really do appreciate all input. Thanks!

It's best to just ignore him. Always. (n/m) - Guapo 20:30:09 08/21/08 There is that EXTREMELY RARE occasion where he has a clue - BigTDogg (MA) 21:28:50 08/21/08 2nd, about the ignoring part, not about having a clue =) (n/m) - ZEngineer 22:27:31 08/21/08 That is true. It is a matter of time. - eriksu9 07:50:16 08/22/08 It's called "opportunity cost"... - Bernie (NoVA) 10:54:14 08/22/08 I think you are missing the point. - eriksu9 12:20:40 08/22/08 No he's not - Bernie is speaking from experience. - TT XTZ 14:01:09 08/22/08 If that is the case, Than I agree totally. - eriksu9 14:52:42 08/22/08 I don't think the time is more likey every 10 weeks in a lot - Bernie (NoVA) 15:16:42 08/22/08 That is what I figured but every 10 wks is still a hell - eriksu9 15:23:10 08/22/08 Sure. (n/m) - Bernie (NoVA) 15:41:18 08/22/08 Take it from me... - Z DNA 10:39:30 08/22/08 Re: Need advice on if I should upgrade to new style injector (n/m) - jdubs 15:51:09 08/21/08 Most likely they are all going there - jdubs 15:57:43 08/21/08 I am not saying do the plenum pull everytime. - eriksu9 12:15:03 08/22/08 IMHO older style injectors are a dead end. There has been - Bernie (NoVA) 16:02:16 08/21/08 '95 EFI harnesses automatically switch the injectors, no? (n/m) - vorpalZ 16:19:25 08/21/08 Correct. They are the only harness that does. (n/m) - Bernie (NoVA) 16:28:08 08/21/08 Go with the Newer style - Jason300zxTT 17:20:34 08/21/08 also, isn't it "Hear Me Later"? (n/m) - Nick(CT) 17:32:11 08/21/08 what is the switched voltage mod? - CWRaab(philly) 17:38:08 08/21/08 Click on "FAQ" > "Auto-FAQ" - TTFairladyZ 17:41:57 08/21/08 thanks, missed it on my first pass. (n/m) - CWRaab(philly) 17:46:15 08/21/08 Is the voltage mod only necessary - Shift_(ATL) 17:39:33 08/21/08 I do it for both - the 95 EFI harness uses new style - Bernie (NoVA) 17:44:09 08/21/08 Cool.. thank you; added to my to-do list while plenum is off (n/m) - Shift_(ATL) 23:04:58 08/21/08 Thanks. Makes sense. So what would be the cheapest route - bt300z32 20:29:53 08/21/08 Even on an NA? I trust what you are saying but - eriksu9 07:55:33 08/22/08 Yes even on a NA. Price points vary and your values are not - Bernie (NoVA) 08:03:01 08/22/08 How much do you do that job for you are talking about - eriksu9 08:06:24 08/22/08 I laid out 3 different options for moving to new style - Bernie (NoVA) 08:15:31 08/22/08 It can only be done under $1000k if they do the work - eriksu9 08:40:02 08/22/08 What does NA/TT have to do with it? - Barry (NJ) 09:04:34 08/22/08 TT's are worth much more than a NA. Thats why. - eriksu9 10:11:28 08/22/08 Your logic is flawed. TT or NA doesn't matter 1 bit. - Bernie (NoVA) 10:34:41 08/22/08 You have me wrong here. - eriksu9 12:32:58 08/22/08 I'd go with new style, and FWIW... - Barry (NJ) 16:14:13 08/21/08 definitely new style. - AntiHero 16:31:18 08/21/08 3rd.
