Last week i realize that 4 of my 6 injectors were leaking, a common thing in renix models as i have read here....well that became worse after a professional cleaning in a specialist shop...
My car is a 90 model,4.0 Limited, Canadian import, and i im in Athens Greece,
Very rare thing here is Jeep junkyards and Used Jeep parts shops, so i went to one of 3 or 4 that we have in Athens city, to get 4 used injectors.....
The guy there, couldnt find the same injectors as mine, so he give me 4 from a "round 94" 2,5 liter engine, a detail is that they are red plastic and black painted body and ofcourse diferent part number than mine...
I instaled then and they worked perfectly ???
Please anyone knows if i did wrong... ? Im i making a damage ? Are they going to work for a while and then off ? any suggestions?

Thank you in advance !!!

Thank you John, but when i say a jeep engine is rare here..imagine about the V8 Ford,
Here is Europe, mostly 4 cylinders and not so many american made cars, unfortunately !

Yia sou Pavlo. Ti kaneis?
The 2.5 injectors will probably work OK as temporary replacements but I suggest you go to e-bay and look for Ford Mustang 19lb/hr injectors ('86-'93 orange-top versions would be best). They'll work perfectly in a Renix 4.0.

My renix injectors just started leaking so I plan to swap in a set of ford 19's from a junkyard. So if I find injectors from a Ford 302, 1986-1993, orange top they will be a direct swap? If I need a new o-ring kit for them what would I buy, jeep or ford replacement kit.

I'm having issues with my injectors also. #5 is definately plugged. I am just going to pull the out and have them rebuilt at NAPA, cost about $100.00 to rebuild all six, plus they will be balanced. Should have them back in by this Friday. I will let you know how it goes.
