Subject:      84 GL fuel injectors?
Content-type: multipart/alternative;


My '84 water-boxer is having a warm start problem, i.e. starts fine cold and hot, but if I let it sit for 30 to 90 minutes, it just turns and turns.  The archive suggests that this may be caused by leaking injectors flooding the engine at any given opportunity (warm).  I would like to know:


what kind of fuel injectors are recommended, keeping in mind that I just bought this wonderful invention (which my wife and I love) last year for $800 and it currently has 264,000 miles on a rather beat-up body.  I'm pricing Bosch, but is the extra $ worth it?
