Looking at their web site, they never claim to rebuild.

|The pintel caps aren't the pintels nor are they the bores they ride in.
|
|These guys aren't rebuilding - they are cleaning & testing. And like I
|stated earlier, if it's worn it's a throw away.
|
|I'll stop short of calling any business that claims to rebuild injectors
|crooks but they are definitely in the grey area.
|
|BTW, I used to rebuild Bosch diesel injectors for myself & friends and I
|still have the pressure tester needed to test them. Mechanical diesel
|injectors are just poppet valves set to open at about 4 BAR and the
|housings
|can be disassembled. But even with these, you don't rebuild the injectors -
|you replace injectors that fail with new ones. Someone "rebuilding" these
|can't afford to drop in new injectors because the cost is higher than the
|service they are offering.
