ok i got a set of dsm 450's but when i pulled the last one off the pintle cap was missing .... ive searched all over for another one but all i can find is a whole rebuild kit... i find the bosch universal caps all over, i ripped one off a spare injector that i had laying around but it is too short .... anyone have any ideas ? ive also read that they function fine without the cap ...

 

they work fine without pintle caps, all 4 of mine dont have em, im running fine.

 

I've run them without also with no problems.

 

i used to rock 2 with caps and 2 without, worked just fine

 

yea screw the caps i had one missing and havent had a problem for 2+ years

 

cool sounds good ... i guess ill just rock thew one missing the cap and if i find a set of 450's at the junkyard again ill sell a set and keep the best ones ...

 

if your really worried (for whatever reason) you can take the other 3 caps off with no ill effects.

the caps just protect the pintle when not installed in the car.
