Default FS: 92-96 Prelude 345cc BWD fuel injectors

these are basically brand new. The story goes like this.. I bought a 92 hatch with b16 swap for a pretty good price. The guy thought he had a prelude motor in it, his mechanic did also.. this is is rural Wisconsin, so yeah. He was having fuel issues (code 43) so he took the b16 injectors out and replaced with with brand new BWD fuel injectors for a 96-97 prelude. I guess after throwing so much money down ($400 new for the injectors), he still got the code so decided to sell it. This is where I come along and scoop up a good deal. So I didn't realize that he had put peak and hold injectors in, instead of saturated. Since I didn't know I started to troubleshoot the code 43 fuel supply system. The first thing I tested was the TPS. It was way off! reading .75v at closed throttle. I adjusted it to .45v at closed throttle and code 43 went away! phew I thought. Then I started driving the car more and noticed that it didn't really run correctly, it would bog at low rpms, idle funny, and worst of all I was getting 19-20 miles per gallon. I got fed up with it yesterday and grabbed the box he gave me when he bought the injectors. I swapped them out with some old civic ones I had lying around and the car started to idle much better, and drove a lot better too. It's a good thing my ECU didn't fry from running peak and hold injectors, I would have been furious. So I grab the box that he gave me and look up the part number for the injectors. Turns out he bought them for almost $100 a piece, and they were for a 96 prelude (bwd part # 57788), or whatever honda's that run with a resistor box! haha. So they're pretty much brand new, probably been ran for like 4 months max. I'm just super lucky I guess that my crap didn't fry or blow up. I hope I get better gas mileage now. Well, if you read the story then thanks, if not here are some

cliff notes.

-bought a 92 hatch that was b swapped
-previous owner thought it was h swapped
-previous owner kept getting code 43 so he replaced the injectors
-threw money to try to fix the problem
-he ended up getting brand new peak and hold prelude injectors cause he didn't know any better
-his mechanic sux *****
-didn't fix the problem so he ended up selling the car
-i bought it
-fixed the fuel problem it was the TPS
-found out injectors were the wrong ones
-replaced injectors with saturated

so if anyone wants these pretty much brand new BWD injectors they are for sale.

$100 for all 4 (bwd part #57788).
