From the great Wm. Gau, who installed a Callaway turbo and FI on his Bavaria, thus creating a monster that ran with a Viper on I-75 in Atlanta (I witnessed the event), comes this listing of rebuild parts for those pesky little bakelite pieces that fall to dust when you remove the injectors:
>I suppose that these little red bakelite washer thingys on the injector
>collar bolts are to prevent the injector from soaking up heat or
>anything like that?
>
>Well, I lost a few of mine to age. Are they necessary? Who makes 'em?
>No one locally, (to include the dealer) has been able to help me.
WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO LEARN to contact yours truly whenever you have an
L-jet parts question??
13 64 1 261 803 Cresent Seal (FI injector seat) .65 cents each
13 64 1 262 255 Seal (FI bolts) .30 cents each
These aren't bakalite but gasket material.
Who knows if they're worth it or necessary or even what the hell they do,
but they are STILL AVAILABLE from BMW and not cost-prohibitive
