    I sugest yes....

    I use to purchase remanufacted injectors (new nozzles, injection valves, valve well resurfaced, new spring, and sometomes new solenoids).

    genue cummins are more expencive and we use to get cheapper Chenese parts.

    They sell injector units and parts for injectors, but to fix injectors in garage is a gamble, becouse you have no tools to measure its perfomance and engine may run roughtly.

    The worst part is pulling every thing off to get to them. you can use a small pinch bar to pry them out or as I did I used flat screw driver and bent the flat end at about 30 degrees, just be gentle when doing it, and when you put the new ones in make sure you lube the "O" rings and injector holes/sleeves with engine oil before installing. When setting them turn the adjuster with a open end spanner, and hold the spanner as close to the injector end as possible, slowly turn adjustment screw down until you feel a slight resistance (it will be promenant) then back off 1/2 a turn, and tighten lock nut. P.s just to add - with the injector screw turn it down until it touches the injector then continue turning it down (which is quite a bit) until you feel the resistance. hope this helps

    M11 injectors don,t have locators so when fitting centralise them evenly between valve springs , make sure your pig tail connectors are okay
