Replacing injector seals...

[bobbycos]

^x2 for OEM.

Majestic or Honda Parts Deals for online stuff. Even your local Honda dealership is cheaper than the injector repair kits that auto parts stores sell @ $35 per injector.

x3 for the OEM, i've had a few issues with aftermarket gaskets for my Honda

i havent.

Now I'm also trying to source some new seals. NAPA says approx $20 for the full set...PepBoys says approx $50...

BUT neither of them have it, and would have to order it. If I'm going to order it, and have to wait anyway...I may as well make sure I'm getting a price I am happy about.

I requested TAS to add it to the site in this thread...maybe he'll come up with it.

i got mine at the dealer, best bet, and there is the injector seals...and i think there is another o-ring seal on it...get them both. i think i just replaced anything that can be in that area.

i dont think i spent more than 30 bucks at honda.

Just 2 seals per injector....top and bottom! The other 2 pieces per injector are just hard plastic spacers/cushions and only need replacing if broken, although I replaced all of that too because I'm OCD with my CB7!

Thanks for the input...I ordered ALL of the pieces late last night from Majestic (great prices!). Came to $41 including shipping. Now I can't wait for it all to get here.

Wish I would have seen this thread sooner, could have saved you money & time. I personally have had multiple sets of injectors sent to Rich at www.cruzinperformance.com. Great guy, great service. He not only cleans & flow tests them, but he can install new injector filters and O-rings on them for you, if you ask. You should have just sent them to him and told him this.

Atleast you ordered OEM parts, however all you needed was four O-rings, as the fuel rail side of the injector is obviously where your leak occurs. The intake manifold side of injector is just an air-tight fit. Therefore, you can reuse your existing spacers & soft rings, as they are more than likely OK (rarely go bad, limited in function). Also, you can reuse the cushion rings that slip-fit on the fuel-rail side of injector (they serve no sealing purpose, not the cause of your leak).

If you're speaking of fuel injector upgrades.....absolutely no need on a N/A engine, you will gain nothing because the OEM's can put out more than the N/A engine will ever need.

One thing you might consider is sending your injectors to this guy. I've heard good things about his work and you can be sure all your injectors are operating to their fullest!

I linked him to Rich in the 2nd post Cisco! Although I did not know he replaced the seals, although it makes total sense that he does....good to know!

Yes, I realized you did, just reemphasizing. I've talked to Rich quite a few times, good guy, great turn-around time.

PACKAGE YOUR INJECTORS PROPERLY!! They are sensitive.
