They are expensive but they tend to last forever. If your leak is in the hose, 
which is common, this is rather easy to fix by CAREFULLY cutting off the 
crimp ferrule and replacing the hose only. If the leak is else where, then your 
only alternative is to replace the injector. I would not use injectors from 
anyone except Bosch.

I used to have a supply, but they are almost all gone now and I no longer 
have new ones to sell. I would only replace the one that is bad. There is no 
reason to replace good ones.
