Take the INJECTOR to one of your LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORES and they will take the NUMBER off the INJECTOR an match you up with one ...

Take your old injector to where ever you are getting it and make a match before you pay for it to be sure ...

"i" got this off BWBers so it should be good "INFO" ...

WTF bs-stick – 3600 posts and “i” (YOU) represent like this and could not EXACTLY bring anything TO the table!!!. Do you actually TRY understanding a question BEFORE attempting to answer or help someone? No need to respond; just reread this VERY SHORT and simple thread…when you (“i”) are lucid!

If I was new here like Will is and my first impression was your (“i”) response and no one else chimed in to point out that we are not all totally irresponsible respondents (ass gaskets) like you, I would just log off and find relevant help elsewhere! However, since no one addressed the huge elephant with bad breath in the room, then I will!!!!!

FYI - You cannot arbitrarily interchange injectors just because they fit a port or you have a PT Cruiser in your fleet with injectors LOOK like they MIGHT work. Seriously!!!

At least Will said “HUH????”, only to get a semi recanted response from you (“i”). “Uhmm, let me know off line if (“i”) am wrong”!

There are at least 7 different injectors used on HD based engines (that would include tuber Buell’s) that deliver between 20 and 50 lbs of fuel per hour and are calibrated for specific applications and control modules. Interchanging them is cool if you know what you are doing, but if you (“i”) do not know what you are doing, then it might be best you remain a spectator as opposed to participant.

Seriously…Will - you never out lined the reason you need to replace the injector(s) and/or if it was determined by anyone if they did not function, or were merely dirty. Never the less, here is a rational response with limited information provided.

First off, if the injector(s) are non functional and absolutely need replacement; ask your dealer to locate them from another dealer rather than ordering them from where ever it might be that takes three(correction, two) weeks. Personally, I have never had to wait more than 5 days for any factory part other than bodywork.

Conversely, if the injectors are functioning but not performing to spec (restricted), they can be cleaned by any competent mechanic.

Note that injectors can cost between 115 – 250 bucks as opposed to, 30 – 50 bucks to clean…

Will, I hope the best…

Hey Rickie, take it easy man. May be you're new here or whatever but Buellistic has been contributing to this forum long before you joined the forum.
Besides, reading your response, I don't see anything in there that helped the original question. Finally, the reference to the PT Cruiser injector was not arbitrary. People have actually used them as a direct replacement for the DDFI injectors. I certainly would use one in a pinch. No flame was intended. Just a suggestion to show some respect if you are planning to remain a part of this group.

This will be fun… I will get back to you girls in the morning or Monday when I have time!

In the mean time do a little research on injector applications, the local weather and my involvement on this site…The internet is such a wonderful tool!!

The reason for needing injectors is the bike has sit for 6 years and the injectors have stuck shut.

You should just be able to send them off to be cleaned, then they would be good as new.

Kalali-

>>>>“May be you're new here or whatever but Buellistic has been contributing to this forum long before you joined the forum.”

NOT!!! I have been posting here since around the late nineties; longer than most here! I just do not post shit and do not play patty cake. My posts are about quality not quantity!

>>>>“Besides, reading your response, I don't see anything in there that helped the original question.”

Then you are brain dead, I am surprised you can type in that condition!!!

>>>>“Finally, the reference to the PT Cruiser injector was not arbitrary. People have actually used them as a direct replacement for the DDFI injectors. I certainly would use one in a pinch.”

Then simply state that as fact, supply the part number, and qualify it as “in a pinch” while listing the cost to use that band aid? Not that I really care, because I would not recommend to any one to use anything that was not at least a direct cross reference to original part. That was the question wasn’t it?

>>>>“No flame was intended.”

You cannot “flame” someone that knows what they are talking about and is not full of shit. Besides, I doubt that I would never give a shit what you think!!!

>>>>“Just a suggestion to show some respect if you are planning to remain a part of this group.”

I am not sure who the f**k you think you are or where you are coming from…I do not play sandbox politics! FYI - I do not respect those that mislead others for there own self-serving agenda.


Shittstick-

>>>>“Rickie_d live's very far up NORTH ...”

That is the only fact you have printed in this tread…and FYI, it is exactly where I want to be! I would not live in that boring flat land even if I was paid.

>>>>“With all the BAD WEATHER he has not be able to go outside for a few weeks to go ice racing ... “

Imbecilic statement since that is exactly what we do…go out side and ice race! If I wait a few weeks there will be no ice or snow!

>>>>“"i" can understand how he feels as "i" have just had both my knees replaced and not been able to do much of anything much less go outside ...”

I get bored when I am laid up too, but I do not publish bullshit just because I have nothing better to do.

>>>>"BUT" "i" can turn up the AIR CONDITIONER when it gets too hot and healed enough now to go outside anytime "i" want !!!”

Seems like you rely on the creature comforts of an artificial indoor environment more than me…and I do go out side anytime I want!!! Even in the summer, I do not spend enough time indoors to appreciate air conditioning.

I see you did not even attempt to defend one aspect of your posts before my first above; instead you produce a series of defense mechanisms…

1) Deflect – Talk about anything but the fact you do not talk facts…
2) Project – apply your assumptions to my situation…
3) Compensate – whine about your medical situation to solicit sympathy and support...

I find the term that you and e-spamer use “it is a Bad Web idea” hysterical as bad web does not publish ideas…It is brilliant individuals like you that not only publish the bad ideas but perpetuate wives tales and urban ledged.

Maybe I should write a chapter on Shittstick bying Jerry Wriggers bike and converting it back to fuel injection…Hmmmmmm

StuperHero –

Cleaning them is exactly what I said to do…you are a little late to the party, but thanks for the confirmation that what I did bring to the table was accurate. Kalali are you listenting?

JR-

That’s right you are not as brave a StuperHero!

That was fun, carry on girls!!!!!

Any competent mechanic can clean them. There are shops that specialize in fuel injection repair.

I was outside all day, sorry to keep you waiting!!!

Actually I did it during the commercials of a movie I was watching tonight.

I spend most of my time doing things instead of hanging on the last word of some ignorate jackass (I guess you now fit in that bucket)on the internet. I check in here when I have nothing better to do...and try to help

By the way, I was not as much of a smart ass as you all were childish. After all, I just responded to the qoutes!!!

Your statement resonates of another experience: I was once told by a Director in the organization that pays my bills, “You just think we are a bunch of idiots!” I immediately replied, “Oh my, not as much as you underestimate my intelligence!” That is why they are paying the bills.

Just so you know, I will be going to sleep now! It has been a long day, and I have to work tommorrow, so it might be another 11 hours or so before I see your quick witted retort.

Nighty night girls...

Damn! I thought you could edit a post and insert an emoticon; I missed the chance to add a visual. I am so disappointed! Oh well, next time.

Move along folks, nothing to see here... move along. : )

Since HD / Buell (RIP) doesn't actually manufacture the injectors odds are that there are multiple applications for the parts. As an example, I know for a fact that the IAC / pintle valve in an HD is a direct swap for a GM sedan (Pontiac).

And there's plenty of 02 sensors that can be used as well. So do some research and you may be able to find a very cheap replacement for the injectors...

Wow,such antics. Unusual to have an injector go south,have you checked fuel pressure? And cleaning them is a good bet. IIRC, the injectors were sourced from a Ford 4 cyl.

StuperHero...???? – You did not get that you became that weeks ago as the one of primary characters in the trials and tribulations of Jerry Wrigger. That’s sad, you poor thing, I now have some insight.

Try to be lucid when you type; and you are StuperHero; that is with an uppercase H and no hyphen…but then again Stupor and lucid kind of cancel each other out!

Sloppy –

Now there you go…something that can actually help, from someone that has real info, what is the part number and the price????

Fireman –

What is the part number and the price? If left as stated, this just becomes another bad web idea…then urban legend…then a wife’s tail. Then the situation spirals out of control where gangs of buellers are pilfering the injectors from Focus’. That would be sad….

By the way, Will.

I am a competent mechanic (among other things), if you cannot connect with someone local to address your problem, email me your phone number and we can make arrangements for me to clean you injectors…Saving a Focus, PT Cruiser, and random Pontiac in the process. Since the latter is now defunct, we wouldn't want that to happen. After all they are now brethren!
