Default dropped injector

I was swapping my 345cc injectors for the stock ones gettin it ready for smog and I dropped one of them and the plastic tip on the jet side broke. the jet tip looks good still, I think it landed at an angle and not straight up an down. Is it still usable or will I need to get a new one. 90 accord dx

if it were mine i wouldnt trust it. if you did and damage to the pintle head it could cause the spay pattern to be effected. spray pattern is everything, especially on hondas.

Broke the plastic tip on one of my injectors (1989 prelude) and couldnt afford to buy a new one. Decided to roll the dice and use it anyways- dont really notice any difference.
