Injector 2 crapped the bed this morning. Dead solenoid. Toyota has 3 for sure, maybe 2 more, but not all six. Plus they are pricey! They were all flowed and rebuilt not long ago so they are not leaking or clogged...but...they all have 283,000 miles on them.

What would you do?

Rockauto remans?

Any brand to stay away from?

Do maybe just one new Toyota injector?

p.s. I6 engines run really badly on 5 it turns out...but they do run.

As someone who has watched you troubleshoot and fix electrical issues on the trail - OEM them all - good for another 283K.

Why spend 800 in repairs when I could spend 6 grand in a swap?

Think of it as your own Carmax warranty against future expensive injector repairs.

Nobody makes a comparable aftermarket?

Toyota or rebuild are your only options?

I can get new aftermarket, but the remains are likely to be Toyota, where the New ones definitely aren’t.

Doesn’t have any more in the US? Internationally? Globally?

It’s not like you’re Zoidberg looking for third gen Celica louvres..

Who makes them? Are they Denso parts or something?

5 tops in the US. not sure about international. Not sure that is worth the hassle.

might be worth checking into. Though the truth is that without a hookup the Toyota ones are a little out of my price range ($170 each!)

What does mud recommend? or the Cruiser shop guys?

They were no help. They suggested to get one new one and use a reman as a spare. To be honest, after looking at the FSM, this is NOT a repair i want to do in the field, its a process.
