Fuel Injectors
Hey. I just found out the reason my engine check light is on. My fuel injectors are messed up. I already tried running the cleaners and finally got a chance to pull them out and the tech said they were messed up. Acura is bitchin about replacing them under warranty so do you guys know what size injectors I need on my car? What type of injectors do you guys reccommend? I am eventually gonna go with forced induction so should I just get bigger injectors now? I need all the information I can get. Oh, BTW, I have an 03 TL Type S. Thanks for all your help guys. I really appreciate it.

Nope. All they did was plug it up to a scan tool, saw misfire codes, and told me they wouldn't touch it because of my mods, which are I/H/E/UR Pulleys. I went to two different dealerships and they both threatened to void my warranty. I just recently got a job at a Honda dealership and I know a few of the techs. We plugged it up to the scan tool there, saw the misfire codes, saw the possible problems, which included fuel injectors so we pulled them out and low and behold, they were messed up. I was gonna go bitch at the dealership and then take it up with the corporate office but I just don't need the aggravation. So i'mma take it upon myself and change them out. Anyone know of compatible "Honda" injectors?, so I can use my employee discount.

bro...I've been w/ an Acura dealer for 5 years as a tech now and I've never ever seen misfire codes from "messed up" fuel injectors. how exactly do u know they're messed up. Cause I think they're fine. Check ur valve adjustments on both heads...especially the exhaust sides..alot of times they are too tight and will cause misfire codes.

We physically checked them at Honda. But now that you bring up the valve situation...I will look into that also. I didn't really look into that because the scan tool didn't list that as a possible problem but I will check them. But back to my original question...anyone know the size on the stock TL-S injectors?
