Club name The Slythe Has a Vauxhall Vectra Diesel ( S regd ) The fuel injector is cream crackered. This seems to be a common fault.

plaicemat Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 The best way is to go to a diesel engineering establishment (supply, repair, recon) and ask for a reconditioned unit. If you mention cash, they sometimes have one 'under the counter' that hasn't gone through the books. Not that I condone this practice in any way. I have a very amenable chap locally so, if you can give me the part number, I can get you a quote to either give you an idea or get one for you. Not ideal, I know, as I live a fair way away but if it is a decent saving, it could be worth it. Terry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted August 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 Terry, Sounds good to me. Steve will get home about 6.30 ish. I'll phone him. BIG thanks Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coddy Posted August 8, 2008 Report Share Posted August 8, 2008 If it is any help have a look here http://www.dieselbob.co.uk/injectionparts.shtml He seems cheaper than you have been quoted. A lot of people on another forum (Transits) use him and had no complaints. Coddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
