Fuel injector seals V6 petrol

Post by Stempy »

Anyone had reason to buy fuel injector o rings? I looked at the price of them on Cit Service and they list as over a fiver so I was wondering if that was for one or for a set of 6?

Despite having been all over a V6 like a rash I've never been there Stempy so cannot directly answer.

Knowing Citroen, it may well be for a pack of ten! It's the unit of issue for V6 throttle body gaskets...

Give your local Stealer a bell. They'll know...

They are very likely a standard Bosch part, used on almost everything

Funny you should mention throttle body gaskets as I need one of those too. Last time I got one it came as a single item. Do you have an excess then?

Well it appears that each injector has two o rings, one costing £5.39 and the other £2.92, so that's £8.31 for each injector so £49.86 for a set of six :shock: So that's my idea of whipping them out for a quick clean out of the window :roll:

So I've found the Bosch part no.s for the injector o rings and filter basket and 'Mr Injector' is on the case, but no where can I find the o ring that seals the fuel rail to the cylinder head, it's not even shown on the Citroen Service site part finder. I can only assume from this that they are an integral part of the fuel rail :? Unless anyone knows different.
