Hello and happy Friday to all, I have a question regarding injectors. I recently had my van in at 2 different shops, one a vw shop the other a non vw shop. The Non-Vw shop told me I need to replace the injectors and the clamps as they were rusty. (I drove over the vw shop to hear their opinion) The VW shop owner who is a past VW dealer repair head mechanic told me not to worry about, they clamps are a bit rusty but them have been holding an injectors are working fine so don�t mess with it. Yes he told me the clamps should be replaced eventually but it was not urgent. What�s your take? New injectors and clamps or just new clamps? The looked at the injectors and the sides of them where the ring is, is definitely deteriorating a bit but them seem solid. I was going to purchase some used injectors off the samba that are in good shape. Your thoughts? Also how do I get a bolt off that is totally rusted? I was trying to put on new fiberglass bumper supports and the metal support has a single bolt that is rusted tight! -- Rob NYC/Long Beach, NY 88 Wolfsburg, Silver
