Injector question

**stvrrr** · 10-25-2009, 06:30 PM

I am gathering parts for my 5.0L EFI conversion for my 64 Fairlane and I so far was going to use a stock 89 Mustang upper and lower with the stock 19lb injectors and electronics. Today I picked up an 98 Explorer intake complete with throttle body and injectors. These injectors are smaller diameter and have 4 small hole in the end as compared to the older ones that look to have just a "pin" in the end. Can I use these explorer injectors with the Mustang ecm? They physically will fit either intake, but I am wondering if they will be better or worse for performance. They are the same colour as the Mustang 19LB ones. Thanks

Check the resistance and post the part number off the Explorer ones.

I didn't check the resistance but here are the part numbers.
F4SE-A1B
0 280 155 700
and there is a 060
and 571

Sounds like the Explorer has EV6 injectors. They use a different style connector than the EV1 so the harness can't hook up to them. They do sell adaptors though.

No the harness/connector is the same as the mustang ones. I will try to get some pictures of the two side by side and post them.

Pictures. From what I have read, the smaller diameter ones have a better spray pattern that atomizes the fuel better.
