Echlin injectors

I'm in the market for a new injector to just replace one original one that is going out. Napa has an echlin with a three yr warranty. Anybody ever use these and are they worth buying?

I'd be kind of wary of buying common rail injectors from NAPA. I would try to get a Bosch

I'm pretty sure Bosch is the only manufacturer of CR injectors...its probably a rebranded remanufactured Bosch injector. There is a shortage of "true" new injectors from what I've read...

I would stay away from those injectors or any type of remand common rail injectors. They seem to have a high failure rate when compared to new.
