Default Fuel injector filter baskets in Bosch 210's

I want a filter at the injectors for the 210's. I'd rather use filter baskets than hats with filters. One less place to leak. Any reason not to? Anyone do it? They are cheaper than hats with filters too.

So you can actually put those in the 210's? I knew they didn't come in them, but figured they wouldn't fit. I guess they don't use them from the factory because they are primarily built for CNG?

Glad to hear. Yes they are like .59 each. Bosch brand baskets. Not making anywhere near that power.

You are correct. They were not installed due to CNG. But press in without much fuss.

Hey, do you have a part number or link or something? I have dual 450 in tank pumps, with "socks", a 100 micron after, and a 30? micron at Y going into rails. I never did like the idea of no injector baskets, but have my own injector cleaning machine. Would still like to run the baskets and maybe lose one of the inline filters.

Hope this works. I used Injector-rehab's Bosch baskets. Should be here in a day or two. I'll let everyone know if/how well they fit.
After looking in the 210's and realizing the tiniest piece of debris will block up the injector, I realized baskets needed to be put in.

I have to run hats to fit these short Bosch injectors in the ProFlo intake.
ID 1300’s in my case.

The hats have baskets. They are quite tiny.

Plastic cone shaped things. Replaced them with some SS non cone type. See photo.
The blow with your lips test def had less restriction.

These Bosch injectors would need a much larger diameter. Would be interested to see a photo when you get them.

Here's what I got. Used the socket to "install" them in the injectors.
