Injector issue/query

Post by seanr68 »

Today i was attempting to swap my injectors from my late(1991)DX engine into my rebuilt TSR motor, when i came across a problem. The later injectors wont fit into the earlier seats, so i removed the caps from the end of the later type injectors and refitted them into the early seats. Is this arrangement ok? Or can it cause issues?

I now have the lower of the two arrangements pictured. Is that ok?

Read somewhere that injectors are matched to the accumulator due to injector opening pressures (eg early injector = early accumulator and vice versa)
