So I started resealing my fuel injectors today and I got to thinking. I've never replaced fuel injectors in this truck so I'm wondering: Are these OEM fuel injectors or aftermarket fuel injectors? How can I figure it out?
You do not really have an after market alternative, plenty of places rebuild or modify. If you do not know the history on the engine, look for similarity, you will see a number like C-94. Maybe a re-builder will mark his product?
As John mentioend, little clues like wire colors........does one or a few stand out from the others with brighter colors? Do the top caps look less yellowed on some?
Kids truck has two that are remans...........#6 is not an OEM reman, does not have factory numbers and is stamped with "reman" or something like that, and throws a code once every other month.
#8 is an OEM reman with factory numbers and never throws a code.

Where would I find the number?

All 8 of mine look exactly the same...I suspect that they are OEM factory injectors, but the OE did mess with some things like the air filter and the trailer wiring, and every now and then I find something else that makes me think that they may have messed with it.
Since I haven't ever seen a set of new OEM Motorcraft injectors I thought I would ask.

While I finally had some time last night to finish putting all the new seals in the injectors and replace/reseal the HPO rail nipples, which has me obsessing over these fuel injectors again.
This is bugging me, I really hate wondering what injectors I have and I can't afford to replace all 8 of them just because I don't know who built them.
Maybe someone could post a picture of a brand new Motorcraft injector for me?
Here is what they look like when you first bring them home
Here is some 2006 OEMs from my truck. Cleaned up, fresh orings, ready to install (30mm round for scale).
I'll root around my album for some better pictures.
Sorry, I started posting just knowing I had some pics of the new ones to post at the end of this but I have rummaged through all my albums on and off line and can't find a single pic.
