DSM 450 Question
Ok, i got my 450's in the mail today and (not being told this) one pintle cap is missing and one is broken belowthe pintle itself.
Will this affect the flow or pattern? Should i ditch these and find some in better shape?

how much did you pay for them first off. It you paid really cheap like 20 bucks just get them rebuilt if you paid lot ask for refund and get another set

It doesnt affect ****!
Your talking that the little cap around the actual metal piece right?
2 of mine were broken and I freaked out to. Apparently affect nothing and Im runing them now
Just make sure the metal point isnt kinked or pushed in
Maybe take a little extra care when storing them
But there perfect if its just the black plastic on the outside

When I recieved a set of DSM's I bought basically all of the pintles were cracked. While unwrapping them one of the pintles fell off! I figured that rahter than there being a possibility of the pintles falling into my combustion chamber I would just remove them. I did and there was no problems at all.

Re: DSM 450 Question (hondaguyef)
the black plastic caps dont do crap. i had 2 of my 4 broken and my car ran fine. you will have to bore out some oem civic injector seals to make the dsms fit properly
