I bought the car about 2 weeks ago and have just now noticed the little metal clips that hold the fuel injector plugs in place are missing and they slide off pretty easily. The previous owner had larger injectors on for a while and I assume these were lost in the transition. Anyone know where I can get just the metal clips without buying the full replacements? Also are these plugs universal? Meaning I could possible pick them up at a junk yard or something?

thanks for the help.

 

bend a paperclip and cut it to the same size. Thats what dsmsers used to do and i had no probelms with my 780s on my talon like that. on my evo i have 1 that is a paperclip and so far no problems

 

Paper clip idea is best. If you go to mitsu you have to buy the harness and everythng else that you dont need.

 

haha great idea! why didn't i think of that?

 

hell yea they are needed

 

The fuel rail should hold the plugs nice and tight. I do not run the clips on mine.

 

How would the fuel rail hold the injector plugs? The plugs are just pushed on and could easily vibrate off if not held down with a clip.
