Well this sucks. Injectors

[typ4]

So ,I just got a call from my supplier and my cost on the stanadyne injectors has gone up 50+ percent. At this price I cannot afford to have any on the shelf in stock, in fact the last order is backordered so I told them to cancel it. this puts a set of new injectors at about 450.00 475.00. Thanks Delphi for dropping a very good item

And since I didnt get this info till tonight I lost a sizeable amount on the last 3 sets I shipped, and that ****** me off, how do you call and assay oh I need more money. arrrrrgh

I remember Mel saying in a recent thread that Delphi was winding down injector production. I'm guessing that it's going to start being more cost-effective to remanufacture existing injectors soon.

This seriously sucks, but I can't say I'm surprised

they still make brand new OEM (92-94) stanadyne injectors.both N/A E code and turbo G code.i put brand new sets in both trucks.
tip; remans cost more than new fyi.the last dealer i bought them from told me this.this is because i bought new,and they mistakenly sent remans.when i called they were happy to correct the mistake haha! i dunno what costs them so much to reman them,but i suppose that means they're probably taking the time to do it right i dunno.
that's a ****** to hear the prices are going up though.

Per Post #6 in that thread, Delphi's getting out of the 6.9l/7.3l injector market altogether.

I know that new injectors have been close enough in price to remans that remans weren't worth it (especialyl with Russ matching injectors...and, thank you again for that Russ!! ), but if the price for new injectors goes up significantly or if they stop being available altogether, the economics may change...that's the point I was making.

that's a ****** to hear the prices are going up though.

Agreed

Glad I bought my pop tester when I did. I might have to try to source the parts for rebuilding my cores. I also would know when I have when I was done.

How many do you need

 

[FORDF250HDXLT]

that was thedieselstore.com and i just checked.they're still showing reasonable prices.
fyi i used usdieselparts.com for my first set of new G codes and had great results there too.if Russ is having troubles i suspect this might mean,those sites prices may go up as well then?

god dang these forums.people keep making me want to store up on spare parts before they go obsolete.im gunna have a back seat looking like Gary's if i stick around here.

My guess is they have a larger inventory onhand, and will have to raise prices when their inventory gets depleted...either that or they don't get very many orders and haven't had to try to restock lately.

Yeah really I'm a packrat who's space-limited, but I'm trying to stock up on parts that I worry will not be available in the near future...

The ebay source I used as a fallback has doubled their price , I messaged them and they are out of Delphi now as well.

 

[OLDBULL8]

Does this mean I can up the price of my 92 when and if I sell it? Got three extra injector sets.

We currently have a large supply of new Delphi BB's. But I would encourage everyone to buy them sooner rather than later. I will not be able to hold the prices indefinitely, and you will want to take advantage of this situation while it lasts. We still pressure match and test our sets and can ship same day.

We ordered a set a month ago from thedieselstore.com (Midwest Fuel Injection) at the $32.00 price. They came through, but really had to scrounge to come up with eight, pulling the last of them from three of their different warehouses. It didn't sound like they had any more stock. Glad I grabbed 'em!

 

[whitehorse]

Well this stinks...probably your government/ epa had a hand in it....
