Perkins original  208-9160 Diesel Fuel Injector for 3176 3196 C10 C12 Perkins C12 Excavator Engine Spare Parts Replacement for OEM original new injector

The Perkins C12 fuel injector 208-9160 is an industrial-grade diesel injection component engineered as a direct replacement for Perkins C12 diesel engines. Manufactured with precision machining and heavy-duty construction, this injector GP delivers controlled fuel atomization, stable cylinder balance, and dependable fuel delivery for demanding operating conditions. The assembly matches original OE specifications, supporting consistent combustion performance and long-term engine protection across fleet, construction, and stationary power applications.

This injector is cross-referenced with part numbers 10R-1264, 116-8899, CA2089160, 212-3468, 281-7152, and 20R-0056, covering Perkins C10, 3176, 3176C, and 3196 engine models in addition to the C12. It is commonly installed on Perkins D7R II track-type tractors and 966G II wheel loaders, and is also used in construction machinery, mining, quarry, road building, agriculture, marine auxiliary power, diesel generator sets, fleet maintenance, and engine rebuilding programs. Each unit is supported by part-number identification, inspection traceability, and pre-shipment bench testing.

For reliable operation, use clean diesel fuel, replace the fuel filter on schedule, drain the water separator, and keep the fuel tank free from contamination. Inspect injector wiring, monitor engine oil for fuel dilution, observe exhaust smoke, and use diagnostic tools including Perkins fault codes when available. Store replacement injectors in sealed protective packaging and protect injector tips from impact, dirt, and moisture. Common failure symptoms include hard starting, rough idle, black or white smoke, diesel knock, low power, high fuel consumption, misfire, fuel-in-oil, high exhaust temperature, engine derate, and external fuel leakage.
