Why cleaning @Zenobie ? if my memories serve me well you own a 328 and BOSCH 328 injectors could be purchase for about 20/25€ each in Europe easily. IF your injectors are not in good shape I advise you to change them instead and that easy to do. I did on my 328 and I found back an engine in great shape since. That was +/- 8 years ago, no need to clean them since
Your memory is " parfait" Yes 328 - 1986 Do you or anybody else have by any chance a reference. To replace them , simply disconnect the line and carefully pull out the injector? Any tools needed? Thanks in advance
@Zenobie please see picture below and don't forget all the gaskets especially if yours are 35 years old like mine. To replace them I sent my car to a good mechanic in ......... Belgium, you have several in your country Parts number for Euro 328 Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
By gaskets do you mean the black rubbers? Any reference for these? They also sell a tool to remove the injectors = something you screw onto the injector, is this necessary or makes it removal safer/easyer? Out of curiosity, what is the broken piece in photo 2?
Look at this copy from superformance.co.uk As already said if your parts are more or less 35 years old you could find them as show on photo 2 ( part 113309 below ) I didn't do the job myself but I am sure several here can tell you how to do it Image Unavailable, Please Login

4 out, the easy ones. 4 to go. So far easy job. Some leveling with 2 open wrenches and the injector pops out I also see normal and viton sealing donuts. Which do you recommend?
I chose viton sealing ( White parts on my previous photo ) They are supposed to be for life. A guy in Netherlands made them. I will send you his email
I think you are a bit confused. The white part on the picture is the bushing and in youre case the are made of a mixture polyester threads en Teflon. The donut is the black thing sealing ring and in your case that one is rubber but i have seen in some threads here on the forum that some guys all ready used the viton ones, but cant find it anymore. MO is that the viton is better resistand to fuel but want to have some confirmation or not before buying them, Anybody???
Fuel resistance is not the issue. The viton are better but not life time parts for sure. If you can get them great. If not just get the standard O rings.
Had to remove the hood otherwise no way to remove the injectors. Well the new Bosch with Viton rings they are in and no leaks. I did not change the bushings Result is very disappointing, I mean no improvement would say rather worse. After the test drive and with the engine off I heard a blub blub sound in the expansion water tank. At the front of the radiator vent a lot of steam came out, from the thermostat vent also but less. However I get the impression that not all the air is out, what am I doing wrong?
Bosch CIS work has been a hobby of mine for many years and this finding is not entirely uncommon after installing new injectors. The cars that I have worked on that have demonstrated poor performance after replacement with new/cleaned injectors seem to be those that have had adjustments to either the mixture adjustment screw and or the fuel distributor port flows over the years in an attempt to adjust AFR. This is often done, sometimes unknowingly, to compensate for the slow, uneven degradation in fuel injector flows over time. Do you know if any of this was adjusted on your 328 in the past? I would start with checking the AFR, ideally from each of the cylinders using the individual exhaust gas sampling ports if they are still in place.
I presume that AFR means air fuel ratio? Once i have the new spark plugs in place i go to a Bosch agency to adjust the fuel mixture. As even before changing the injectors and plugs and at a moment the car was running perfect several people told me that when they drove behind me it really smelled gasoline
Show me where you can buy these for 20/25 Euro. And please make a conscious decision on using brass replacements or go with steel ones. I never use the brass ones as im always afraid the will snap when pulled out later.
The 1 ste line are the injectors, the second line are the viton rings, those prices are without btw = tax Autodoc is European cy
FWIW, I replaced the OEM steel injectors on my '89 328 with a set of new Bosch brass injectors. The car was running perfectly with the original injectors but I replaced them because the old ones were "old." There was absolutely no difference in the way the car ran before/after. I'd suggest that unless there are symptoms indicating an injector(s) is faulty, leave them alone. Post #12 mentions removal of the hood. I didn't have any particular trouble removing/installing the injectors with the hood in place. I don't recall it being much more involved than changing spark plugs. I had the injector removal tool sold by someone on this site - can't remember who since it was probably 10 years ago.
In many parts dealer which supply BOSCH parts everywhere in Europe or through numerous websites selling car parts.
oke thats cheap. but still the brass one which do not like. But i looked at this, turn out my the info in my head is outdated. But you can buy the steel ones for Euro 30.
Curious where you can still by steel injectors new? They have been out of production from Bosch since 2011. I am preferential to the steel versions for a couple of reasons that have been discussed/debated on this site before. The only way to get steel versions that I am aware of is by rehabbing used injectors.
