Default Fuel Injectors



Can someone tell me how to tell what ib. fuel injectors I have? The guy I just bought my Mustang from says they are 19# but they look like they are 24#. They are for sure aftermarket. If I take one out will it say somewhere or what?</P>


Thanks.</P>

Pull one out and get the part number off of it. Or just get the number if you can see it.

What makes you think they're aftermarket?

iirc the stock ones are orange. Or they were on mine.

I went and read whatever numbers are on the injectors and it reads "F1TE-D5"</P>


I don't know what this means though, do any of you? How else can I figure out if these are 24# injectors or not?</P>

Yes, I have a really rough idle that fluctuates from 600rpms to 2000 and occasionally will die on me </P>


Ive been told just to buy a new mass air meter from pro-m that is already calibrated for 24#, you think I should?</P><edited><editID>Milky</editID><editDate>37964.1533912037</editDate></edited>
