Title: m-TDI injectors
Post by: jtanguay on March 29, 2007, 12:37:36 pm

Hi guys,  just a quick question!

I know that the electronic TDI's require the 3rd injector to be special, to accomodate some sort of piezo timing device.  does this mean that on an m-TDI i can just use a regular injector in that hole???  or is there some kind of special safety measure in place to make sure that someone doesn't install a regular injector into that hole???

Thinking of maybe buying these:

wonder if the French can make a good injector like those Germans!

Yes, on a M-TDI you can replace the no:3 injector, that look cleaner, but you will have to fold the pipe of injector.
