Injector top damage - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hi guys, here is a pic of a pair of sr 370cc injectors that were damaged when they were getting pulled out. My question is will they still work fine? I have heard that they might work fine as long as the metal part on the top is not damaged because all that got destroyed was the plastic circle on top. Please let me know if these are still usable or not:

Thanks, Alex

they should be ok to use.

heres a nifty trick for getting injectors out (so you dont have to take a pair of plyers and wiggle them out.

1. unscrew the cap for the injector
2. remove cap
3. screw the screws for the cap about halfway into the threads
4. using two smaller flat head screwdrivers put the two tips in the little slots on the side of the injectors, and use the screws you put back in, as pivot points. they pop rite out most of the time without hurting anything.
