Default Swappable Injectors?

87 crx si. Had a leaking number 2 fuel injector. For a quick fix i went to the local scrapyard and grabbed a fuel injector out of roughly the same year accord, plugs right in and seats well, plus no more leaks. Ive been reading some honda stuff lately and i have found that this might not have been the best idea. Regardless, am i ok to drive with that injector in or am i losing power? By the way when i compared my injector to the accord one i couldn't tell which was which.

do you feel like your loosing power?

if you have a volt meter. check the resistance of the fuel injector you got from the junkyard. and make sure it has the same resistance as the injectors that you have on the car.


i would recommend cleaning the injectors while they out.

shops charge wayyyyy too much to clean out fuel injectors, is there anyway to do it yourself?
