Need new injectors-need advice

The Ford mechanic is saying that for injectors showed weak on the "buzz test". What does that mean? If I need to get new injectors should I take this as an opportunity to upgrade? And if so, what should I go with? I have a FASS fuel pump but no regulated return or anything else to the fuel system. I have been thinking of doing that though. I'm not rich so I what to spend wisely.

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Suggest you give some info on what motor you have. Is this the 2000 Exc in your profile? So 7.3 liter?

May be best to ask down in that motor forum.

Duh....sorry-it's a 7.3

I thought that my info. would be at the bottom. I guess I need to find where to fill that out.

I can't help with you 7.3 question, except to say that if I was paying the bill, I would have them replace every injector at once while they are in there.

As for the info at the bottom, that is called a "Signature" and you can have one about 24 hours after you have 25 posts. You'll find the option appears in your USERCP. You have to design it, it is not automatic.
