Interchanging Fuel Injectors?!?! 700 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be Terrence Town on  Mon May 28 12:47 CST 2001 [RELATED]

OK, so I have read around the FAQs but have not found an answer to this one. Here's the deal. I was able to pull some used fuel injectors out of a 1986 Volvo 740 Turbo. Pulled them, cleaned them, and then wanted to install them into my 1986 Volvo 740 NON-TURBO. Then, I notice that they are different part numbers! I checked Bosch's info, and as far as I can see, the difference is in the fuel delivery: the NON-TURBO injectors deliver 176 cm3/min, while the TURBO version delivers 300 cm3/min. The question is, can I put these TURBO injectors on my NON-TURBO 1986 740 GLE? Thanks in advance!

    No you can't. The turbo injectors also require a ballast resistor pack because of their lower impedance.

      Are there different resistance for different years/injectors? This is one of the obstacles I am dealing with for my Turbo conversion.

      Thanks,

      Rene

        The injectors for the turbo LH 2.2 use a different injector resistor pack (than the LH 2.4 ) part number, although the resistance is the same to my Fluke meter. I am running the LH 2.4 injectors and resistor pack on my LH 2.2 car. I haven't tried intechanging the resistor pack. You are going to need a turbo wiring harness for the injector resistor installation. What year car are you converting?

          I'm converting an 88 with 2.2

          I don't need to change the whole harness, I plan to splice in the resistors where they are normally on the turbo.

          Thanks for the info, I am using 2.2 turbo injectors and have the resistor pack for the same.

          Rene
