Unhappy wrong injectors installed help

I need to know what color injectors to put in my 1980 Datsun 280zx. pleas help it is floding badly and fowling my plugs rapidly.

I have done some more studying on this care, and I found out why it was getting too much fuel presure. The fuel damper is completely non fonctioning at this time so instead of replacing it, I just put a presure regulator in its place to hold the presure back from the pump. I did however have to get the presure regulator from a high performance hot rod shop.

mine are green.. but your best bet is to go to a parts store to get the right ones for your car... you can prolly pick up some remaafactured ones for around $35 each.. thats what i did.. and mine work fine...

I think injectors used to cost a lot more. I got some a few years back, aftermarket, and they cost me $65 each. I was comparing that to the Nissan injectors at about $150 each.

anyway, I'd check the fuel pressure first. (maybe you need a new fuel pressure regulator) They are about $15-30 and easier to change than six injectors.

I have to agree with Bleach there. Even if that's not the problem, the regulator will eventually need changing anyway.

Think of it as preventive maintenance.
