[Diy_efi] RE: Diy_efi Digest, Vol 21, Issue 1

hello all,
I'm new to the list and not sure how to use it yet (so far I can't find 
archives or anything that resembles a discussion board) but I'm working on 
something and could use some help. The project is a jag v12 and what I'm 
doing is replacing the hoses and old style fuel rail with a more modern 
o-ring style fuel rail. I have the fuel rails, hoses etc but need a 
substitute injector. (low impedence, 18.1 lbs per hour.) So far my choice is 
a ford white (Escort 1.9L) which matches specs quite closely but I have two 
questions. First the jag specs say peak and hold and the escort is I believe 
saturated. Is that about the ECU or the injectors? Second, can I exchange 
the tops of similar bosch injectors without destroying the inner workings. I 
could destroy an injector to find out but I'd rather hear from someone who 
has done this whether successful or not.
Thanks in advance
Terry diFalco

any information is welcome
