Default Oh No, I lost something......**PIC**

I was replaceing my injector O-rings tonite and happen to notice that one of the orangeish colored caps, that seem to be like a screen was missing from injector #4 The other 3 injectors had them, and are fine, but I must have dropped that one out when I change over my Intake Manifold a month back(changed back to stocker).

Is it important that I get one, and what does it do.

My fuel economy went down 100 miles on a tank from 350 to 250 just after changin my manifold as well.....Could that have anything to do with it?

Is this something to worry about?????

I believe those are the filter baskets. I'm pretty sure that you should be using them. You can go down to a NAPA or some other parts store and get replacements.

AMybe call RC engineering or someplace like that where they 'balance' and rebuild injectors. Ask them if they can sell you a few.

Crop that pic, yO! There's no need for that huge white area that is too wide for the page.

Lol, I am only a MS PAINT expert, and cropping is beyond my skills.

I dont mean to hi-jack your thread, but what kind of shop can test injectors? I nabbed some out of a integra at the junkyard. I want to make sure they are good before using them.

groundedcivic91- Look in Marren's fuel injector accessories page: http://www.injector.com/fuelin...747ee The injector filter basket is part of the injector seal kits they sell. That's the last line of defense for anything that the fuel filter didn't catch.
