For George Downs:
George, I'm referring back to your post of Feb.27; did you ever find out what the difference is between 0 280 150 024 and 036? The Stan Weiss chart gives them the same specs, but the Opel Club chart shows two additional 036s with higher flow rates. This is what's going on: I'm looking for some spare injectors for my "71 142E and I found four 024s and one 036. All of five them came out of Volvos, all of them are dark blue, and the only difference I could see was that the rubber hose on the 036 was crimped on with a ferrule, while the ones on the 024s were attached with hose clamps. Furthermore, the ones in my car are a lighter blue, almost turquois, and so are the ones in a "72 144 I looked at. Does any of this make a difference?
For everyone: The owner of the place where I found the injectors doesn't know what to charge for them, but he called the Volvo parts department and they told him $180 each, new. I told him $124 at ipd, and, probably, less at FCP. Now it's a matter of figuring out what a very used D-jet injector is worth. Any input on that subject would be very much appreciated.

PS: (This is an edit.) I just checked FPC. Their price is $50.96. So, I guess that answers my second question -- $10 - 15, if you consider that it would take about 20 bucks each to have them cleaned , flow tested and otherwise refurbished, including mailing charges.
