GB Reman announced the release of 17 gasoline-direct-injection (GDI) part numbers including GDI injectors, seal kits, fuel lines and a premium GDI seal-replacement tool kit.
The additional part numbers enhance GB Reman’s remanufactured GDI program with added coverage for more than 2,300 unique vehicle applications and more than 24 million vehicles in operation.
“We are very proud of this release, especially with the highly anticipated expansion of our industry-leading GDI program,” said Joe Evert, director of engineering & operations. “Our commitment to quality is the cornerstone of our GDI program’s popularity. We take great pride in delivering top-notch products, rigorously tested to ensure superior performance and backed by a stellar warranty for peace of mind. Our team of experts and our dedication to excellence sets us apart, making GB Reman the trusted choice for those who demand the best in performance, reliability and customer service.”
GDI Fuel Injectors & Seal Kit
GB Reman’s line of remanufactured fuel injectors are remanufactured using a proven 15-step process at its state-of-the-art facilities in Long Beach, California, according to the company.
All injectors include new external seals, O-rings and filters. In addition, all GDI injectors include pre-installed combustion fuel-inlet seals and necessary hardware to ensure a complete and trouble-free installation.
Once remanufactured, each injector is 100% tested under multiple operating conditions to ensure it meets or exceeds OEM specifications for flow rate, spray pattern, coil resistance, form, fit and function.

GB Reman released two GDI fuel-injector multi-packs (PNs: 835-11156PK, 835-11158PK) covering 495 unique vehicle applications and more than 6 million vehicles in operation.
Replacing GDI injectors in sets ensures balanced performance, consistent fuel atomization, and prevents drivability issues by maintaining uniformity across all cylinders. While it may involve a higher initial cost, replacing injectors in sets promotes cost-effectiveness in the long run by reducing the likelihood of future repairs and optimizing overall vehicle longevity.
GDI Fuel Lines
GB Reman released six GDI fuel lines (PNs: 892-001, 893-001, 893-002, 893-003, 895-001, 895-002) covering more than 1,000 unique vehicle applications and more than 9 million vehicles in operation.
GDI fuel lines are responsible for delivering pressurized fuel from the fuel tank to the GDI injectors located near the combustion chamber of each cylinder. They play a crucial role in ensuring that the engine receives the right amount of fuel at the right pressure for efficient combustion. The fuel lines are designed to withstand the high operating pressures associated with GDI systems, which can be significantly higher than those in traditional port fuel-injection systems.
Premium GDI Seal Tool Kit
GB Reman released its new premium GDI seal tool kit (PN: GBTK-0001). The tool kit can be utilized to reseal more than 100 unique GDI injectors, covering more than 70 million vehicles in operation, according to the company.
As part of any GDI injector replacement procedure, all injectors on the fuel rail must have their injector seals replaced. While replacing GDI combustion seals is not technically challenging, proper tools and procedures are necessary to ensure that the seals function properly. For
