Is it really necessary to get a rebuilt spider injector?
I am just wondering about the innards of the spider injector, if you replace the regulator and make sure all of the seals on each line to each cylinder are not leaking, can there really be anything wrong internally with the spider injector? Aside from the injector connector, is there anything mechanical/electrical that can go wrong with a spider that would make it in your best interest to replace the entire thing?

It depends. If your leak is not the spider, then I wouldnt worry about it. Mine was leaking from 2 of the poppet nozzles... So I needed an injector assembly. I just used a junkyard one for now, works fine.

The problem that most often occurs with the spider assembly, aside from a leaking FPR, is the poppets gum up which can cause them to not open properly and/or not spray properly.

I hope this helps!
