BMW injectors for Lanos... question

[Rodd1s]

so its been proven that the BMW E30 series 1.6 injectors fit the lanos 1.3 sohc lump... what about the 1.8? because i can get a set of 4 for £70 (incl. delivery). for some reason i cant find the 1.6 injectors anywhere.

[Big Jeff]

also would they fit a 1.6?

it all depends on the flow rate of the injectors... the one i got are for a 1.6 BMW engine and if i remember they were some 150cc/min... the 1.5 (and supposedly the 1.3) lanos injectors are 135 so it is almost a perfect match

i am not sure about the the 1.8 engine's injector but due to the fact that injectors are color coded to identify flow rates then the blue top injectors are the ones to get

physical fitment of BOSCH injectors is OK on all daewoos as long as they don't have Delphi management (that rules out the optras and aveos due to socket differences)

tried the same set on a couple of 1.6 daewoo engine and they were running perfectly

for the 2.0 and 2.2 injectors you would have to find a set of 3.0 or 3.5 BMW injectors... can't remember if those were yellow or green top though... OK the 3.0 or 3.5 engines seem to be much much bigger compared to the 2.0 and 2.2 but here is the thing... BMW engines that are bigger than 2.0 liters are 6 cylinders so you only divide the BMW's engine capacity by 1.5 to compare and since both the 3.0 and 3.5 got same injectors then those engines are a perfict match to the 2.0 and 2.2

the injectors i found have an orange coloured top.

[MMamdouh]

orange??.... i have no idea about those... try to find out the flow rate and if it is close to our current rate then it will be OK although i doubt it as the closest match were the blue top injectors

heres the ebay link: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-1-8-RECON-INJ ... 240%3A1318

it states lower down the page a flow rate of 185cc at 3 bar (~45psi)

theres also 192cc injectors for 6cyl 323 and 325 bmws: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/BMW-E30-323-325-6 ... 240%3A1318

these are the two lowest flow rate injectors i can find at the moment.

anyone got any more info on whether the 180cc to 200cc injectors mite work alright?

im thinking if they're too big... what fuel pump could i use as an upgrade for the lanos?

[Big Jeff]

i think the 180cc wpuld be alright with my car, but not sure.....

so for the fuel pump my friend sell a uni upgrade fuel pump
Here but the web site is not up to date he is on ebay as a shop

what is the 1.6 flow rate

the BMW injectors on a 1.6 engine are 150CC/min

the 1.5 SOHC has 135CC\min injectors and i recon the 1.6 DOHC got 150CC\min injectors
