My Fuel Injector is cracked in half, and I can't find any place that has them in stock. The parts department at the dealership is closed, and I have no way of getting to work tomorrow. Anyone know of a parts place that has these in stock and is open on Sundays in SoCal.

Otherwise, I'm screwed.

 

have you tried getting an Accord v6 injector and see if it would work..temporarily atleast? I know it's a diff. car but I would try to compare the 2 injectors and see if it would fit. It's worth a shot.

 

I checked on autozone and they are different part numbers. I checked Kragen, Pepboys, Napa and none of them have them in stock. Plus, they are charging 70-115 each, and I read on the "Type S Manifold" thread that the dealership charges 50 bucks each.

Either way, I just really need one.

 

kinda SOL on a sunday. How did it crack?

 

yea really.. that does sucks.

is it rare for them to crack?

 

Yes it usually doesnt happen, unless they are being played with (ie being removed) typically..

 

Murky,

It may be too late, but call a salvage yard. They should be open on Sunday and could help you out. Most of the time they won't pull the injector's off a complete engine, but if the engine is shot will leave it in the car. Some will even transport from one yard to another. Not ideal, but could be your best chance if none of the local parts suppliers have one.

it look's like car pool time Homie!

 

I really don't know how it cracked. all of a sudden I smelled fuel in the car when driving, and even more when the heater was on.

Took the car over to the in-laws and took it apart. pulled out the three front injectors and the far left one was broken. this was more then likely my cause of bad gas mileage.

As far as work is concerned...... I called my boss and let him know. He was cool with it(as always) I just hate calling the day before, saying I need a day off.

Tomorrow is a new day, and I will have a new injector. Thanks guys for your comments, and guiding me through my time of peril....... hahahahaha.

 

Oh and I called over 20 of the 53 salvage yards in my area, and all were closed but one. Which, by the way, didn't have my car because it is too new. A freakin 99 is too new.

Oh well, there is always tomorrow. hopefully the dealership will have one.

and in the mean time, I'm driving my wifes dads 01 cavalier z24. not nearly as fun, but its a 5speed.
