    I need to replace the injectors on my 97 V6 4Runner. OEM is ~ $150/injector. Alternatively I can buy re-manufactured ones. On Ebay I see them around $60 for a set. Not sure about the quality but they state lifetime warranty!
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/Reman-x6-O...L-V6-23250-62030/223283375216?epid=1011828723

    Elsewhere Fiveomotorsport.com sells the re-manufactured for $47/per plus a $10 core charge. There may be others that I am not aware of.

    Does anyone have good experience with any provider that you can refer me to?

    Thanks,
    Matt

    None. Bone Stock. EXCEPT: Brushguard, tow hitch, both welded to the frame. It's good to have friends and a fully equipped garage!
    I have never replaced any of my truck's injectors, but $150.00 sounds awfully steep for one injector. Then again, the Toyota stealeships can get a little expensive. Having said that, you get what you pay for. Not only that, you factory injectors lasted this long. How much longer will OEM injectors last you?

    Another possibility is getting the set you have remanned. If you can have your truck down for a few days, there are places, and I really wish I could recall the names, you can send in you injectors, and they remann them and ship them back. Usually very quick service, too.

    I've seen a lot of threads with reccommendations for aftermarket injectors, so just hang on. I'm sure someone will chime in to help ya.

    Sorry I'm not more help.

    I have found another outfit in CA (www.motorwestperformance.com) that will re-manufacture my set for $20/injector plus shipping. That is certainly another option.

    None of my business, but I'd go the remanufactured route...hands down. The counter-fit business in TOYOTA parts is through the roof. Search youtube and you'll find warnings from TOYOTA TECHS. fwiw

    ECFC8AD0-AFE4-4446-A877-0AAF2D128265.jpg Ya I saw those on EBay, and the OEM’s take Atleast 3 weeks to acquire. So I opted for new Advance Auto:Intermotor injectors installed with new pigtails, 3 year warranty,(they get real brittle at this point) for around $1,200....

    I would be very careful about after market stuff. Some might be fine, don't get me wrong, but even getting your factory injectors remanned is a real good idea. Better than any after market injectors, IMHO. Except maybe LCEngineering, or URD. They make quality products.

    Good luck!
