broken injector cap

Post by **Clemens** » 03 Oct 2015, 14:37

While replacing the pcv system on my 96 R one injectpr stayed in the intake. While tryimg to put it bacl into the fuel rail i was stupid and cracked the cap of the injector (the one that reaches into the intake where the injector needle gows through). It is still on, but cracked. Wondering if i could glue it back together with CA or do I need tonreplace it. And if, is this a part available through Bosch?

Thanks.

While you're at it, change the o-rings and filter baskets too. They often come in a kit and the work is easy.

The kits I linked are the all inclusive ones with the strainers, o rings, and the cap.

Beck Arnley also sells the pintle caps through the chain auto parts stores but I don't like the way they snap on. They take a second snap to seat and they didn't really line up with the hole the same as the OEM Bosch versions.

Thank you, gentlemen, that was - as usual - very helpful.
