Technical injector

[mk1 puntoer]

hello dont suppose anyone knows of anywere i could get an injector for a mk1 55s as mine is currently blocked iv cleaned it and ran it through and still no joy to lack of power and i no that its the injector as all ignition and anything else relating to engine performance or drive performance has just been replaced also not buying a fiat one as to expensive thanks

Scrappy.

Generally they have to be pulsed to clean them properly. But dirty ones almost invariably stick open rather than block.

If it is genuinely blocked, replace fuel filter as a matter of urgency. P55 will be the same injector as a Cinq Sporting, early Sei Sporting.

If you have had the engine in bits, did you connect the fuel system the right way round?

That's a damn good point. It's easy to put the flow and return on back to front. Here's a P60 for reference. Note the red tape.

Ah, OK, just a thought.

What is the resistance of the injector?

Please, no text speak. It renders the forum completely incomprehensible to anyone for whom English isn't their first language. And this is an international forum.

English is my first language and it's completely incomprehensible to me.
