    I think they just replace the whole injector with reconditioned ones.
    Then send your old ones away.
    Its a swap thing...

    Cheers

    some places clean all the old paint off. half of it gets cleaned off with the ultrasonic clean anyway.

    Yes Repco do the swap thing, I guess it is just easier and quicker for them to have a set on the shelf ready to go.

    It does sound like you got some other problems with the new injectors though..
    Hope they sort it out for you in the morning.

    Cheers
