Re:Injector o-rings

[Jarmanhome@domain.elided]

In AD v8#109 Adam Doherty asks:
"Are the o-rings that seal the fuel injectors at the rail and head 
available? This is for a 164. The part would seem generic enough--then 
again, they may insist you buy a new injector; which seems a touch 
overkill.... It would seem generic a part to find at an autoparts store, 
or I'm hoping its that easy."

If they are true o-rings (that is, they have a round cross section), then I 
would suggest you try a well stocked local car parts place.  Make them 
understand it's for a fuel injection system though, because rubber is not 
rubber, is not necessarily rubber.  You don't want an unseen catastrophic 
failure there, of all places.
If they are NOT o-rings, rather they are what's called a molded shape with a 
square or other shape cross section, don't try to substitute non-OEM parts.
