Injector housing question??
Injector housing question??
Ok the best way I can explain this, when you put the injectors down into their housing, there is a plastic piece with a 0ring on it that they go into...what is it called?
I had a 0ring on one of them fail yesterday, and I am unsure as to replace just the 0ring or all of these plastic pieces with their 0rings as a "why not"
however I have no clue what they are called, and if this part would have to be a dealership part or if anyone knows if autozone or a place like that would carry them?
Thanks all!
oh and btw u know when one of these fail.... my car kept dieing while driving but would idle pretty normal, upon opening the hood you could hear the leak even over my fans running at full blast...it's one of those things where once the hood opens it's like OH I gotta vac leak, no questions about it, and of course I did the spraying around the injectors which when sprayed by #3 the car tried to die...so this morning off came the injectors to find a badly ripped 0ring on one of these housings.

Its the injector seat. I had the same thing happen to me. Autozone didn't have any and the dealer told me it would take a while to get. I ended up going to this place callled Manufacture Motor Parts. The only thing they had though was like an entire injector rebuild kit. I got the seats, o-rings for seats and all the o-rings for the actual injectors. Still have some around I could dig them up and ship you an o-ring and seat if you can't find any near you. I have a 2.2, but they should be the same for the ss/sc.
