Hi all

Any ideas where I could get an O Ring for one of the injectors today ? Are there such things as standard rings that the motor industry use ? I'm based down in surrey.

Didn't realise when fitting the new ones that either one was damaged or I damaged it without noticing. Flipping annoyed as really wanted to get the car running today but fuel is pi**ing out !

I have a new spare one, but in Wellingborough, Northants. You're welcome to it but it's a bit of a drive !

And they're the same size as the standard fuel regulator 'o' ring if that helps.

The same ring is used top and bottom of the injector.
The top is a seal against fuel pressure where the bottom one is an air seal to the manifold.

To get you running again until you can get new ones just swap top to bottom. The very slight air leak will not be a problem.
