Found a brand new one from United fuel injection in WA for $575 including freight and seals. The fellow there said he would even airbag it for me so I can have it on Tuesday
Joel,
I am pretty sure that the injectors need to be matched to the ECU ( not sure of the process though ), so it still might not run well, even with a new injector/s
Mic
Here is some info on coding of the injectors....

Thanks for the info but after talking to the guys at United fuel injection about it there is no need for trim codes or ecm calibration when changing Bosch unit injectors. I noticed that the info in the link was for denso injectors used in Toyota. Even if they did need a trim code such as the ones Cat uses you can still install a new injector without the trim codes and the engine will run fine. They are set up that way so that in the case where you don't have the equipment to add the code to the ecm it can be done at a later date.
I havent replaced the injectors on a 3 litre Di so I dont have experience in it, but there have been some reports on the net from Patrols that havent wanted to run properly with new injectors fitted.
If United say it is good, I would also refer to their expertise, but you might want to take down the codes, or take a picture of the codes on the new injector as a fail safe just in case it still runs poorly and so it makes it easy for them to check......

The numbers you need are on top of the solenoid in easy view if it is a problem. But thanks for your concern.
Joelshero...i just put a new injector into #1 and it stopped smoking but ive now got no power...wondering if i got sold a faulty one. it wasn't from united but thats where i got mine tested the first time. (they wanted $480 for a second hand injector)
did you end up getting one off them??
again ouch $480 second hand double ouch
Injector cleaner $13 a bottle

Yeah got a new one thru ebay for $575 delivered from United, from experience with Cat and other brands its not really worth mucking around with the re-manufactured injectors, haven't fitted it yet hoping to get to it after lunch. Not sure about your lack of power issue. Did you get the blower motor sorted on your aircon? And can you see how much boost you are getting. I will post the results from my injector's bench test once I get a chance to scan it and try to explain from the results why the symptoms of the engine were what they were. I think I am still up for a turbo as well though because of the oil seal being dodgy and I am gunna need a trip to the auto elecs to sort out why the A/C isn't working (which I still think may be related to some of the issues) so I will let you know how I go.
