Where to buy Ford fuel injector O-rings?

  • Sponsors (?)


I got new o-rings, pintle caps, and that little washer thing for like 2.50 for a set for each injector from Napa since Advance auto didnt have them. Heres the part number...2-12085 The pintle cap protects the pintle, which is the little valve that release the fuel from the injector, theyre vert delicate.
 
The pintle cap keeps the O ring from sliding off into the intake manifold. It looks like a little top hat..

Fuel injector seal kits with 2 O rings and a pintle cap (Borg-Warner P/N 274081) are available at Pep Boys auto parts. Cost is about $2.74 per kit.. The following are listed at the Borg-Warner site ( http://www.borg-warner.com ) as being resellers of Borg-Warner parts:

http://www.partsplus.com/ or http://www.autovalue.com/ or http://www.pepboys.com/ or http://www.federatedautoparts.com/

Most of the links above have store locators for find a store in your area.

Use motor oil on the O rings when you re-assemble them & everything will slide into place. The gasoline will wash away any excess oil that gets in the wrong places and it will burn up in the combustion chamber.

The pintle caps fit either injectors with a pin sticking out the injector end or 4 with more tiny holes in the injector end

I bought some used 19# injectors off of Ebay for an 87-93 and they are the style with the pin sticking out. they didn't come with the pintle caps so I was wondering should they have? The o-ring is there but no caps.
