Excellent answer! My best friend Herbert-Lambert Hubert-Norbert von Langschwanzwolftal asked me to post the following words of greatest automotive pioneer Robert BOSCH  (1861-1942) and the major supplier of the highest quality products to the Wehrmacht:
"The integrity of my word, faith in superiorquality of my goods and in my promise, have always meant more to me than mere transitory gain".

And here, in California, Doctor? Jacobs advertising his jonk-ignition said " nothing good ever came from Bosch!" Interesting who are the jerks which approver his "doctorate" ? Only in America-said my teacher Ieronim Ioachim Hagedorn von Kreuznach.

They're the right equipment for your Vanagon.  Yes, they are more expensive, but
at least you'll know they're the right ones.  Another brand may work, but your
fuel system was designed with Bosch injectors and other Bosch componets.  Why
change it?

Bosch parts and only Bosch parts.  I may be partial...

Subject:  Fuel Injectors other than Bosch

Has anyone used fuel injectors other than Bosch when a new one is needed?
and what have been the results?

I called several FLAPS and got a price of $35 and $40 for new injectors:
Standard and another brand.

Rebuilt Bosch are @45 each and new @80

Thanks,
Robert
