damn im so pissed off right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my car wont start cause somone on ebay sold me some shltty denso 550 side feed injectors. when i had everything in my car together and tried to start it, it wouldnt start. i noticed my fuel psi gauge wasnt showing any psi. also, the injectors were squirting out fuel from the top as well. i put new orings on them and everything. well, i didnt know exactly what was wrong till today. i thought to myself if the gauge is reading no psi at all, and im getting fuel for sure, then all of the fuel was going straight into the cylinders. sure enough, my assumptions were correct. pulled the dipstick and smelled nothing but pure fuel!! im fuking livid right now, and i know this guy will give me my moneyback. if not then hell totally regret ever selling them to me. even tried to hide some damage that they had in his auction by covering a broken piece on each injectors with his fingers while taking the pic. i just tried to call dave at deatschwerks but no answer. oh well, im gonna try and call him again to send me some asap so i can drive my car. and please dont say it was an install error as i know what im doing. he sent them to me faulty, and i shouldve know better than to just try and see if theyd work out. he said hed give me my money back last i talked to him and that was before i found this out today that they are total crap. so thank god the motor never actually fired. now i gotta drain the oil, and change the filter. ill do it again once she fires up and after running for a min. moral of story, dont buy critical parts off of ebay!!!!!!!!!!!!!

haha i knew youd say some shlt about that too. its all good, but i wanted to pick up a few things off of you. doesnt matter anymore though as ive got everything i need now. well cept for the injectors, but those will be here wed or so. man, i wish i really had an extra $500 cause i couldve went with the 740s and an enthalpy ecu and get it all done at once. still havent heard anything from the guy on ebay. he had over 140 sells with %100 feedback. thats the only reason why i went after them. but the funny thing is that i only saved $15 as opposed to the deatchworks that are brand new. i guess thats what niggas get when they try to nickel and dime some shlt like this.

that happened to me my injectors were brand new not from ebay... but they were sard 550 side feed i put them in and they were leakin into the engine and out the top.. when i installed them the first time i installed the oring that came with the injector... thats was the mistake...i got some new o rings from the dealer. as i compared them the o rings that came with the injector was tooo thin. thus not sealing properly...but anyways i see that u already sent out for new ones... hope it all works out...

was it causing your motor not to start as well? did you flush your motor with new oil? i used brand new orings that came with my felpro full gasket set from ams. i compared them to my stock o rings that were on my stock injectors and they were the same. but there was a piece on each injector that was broken that would cause the lower oring not to seat right. i thought it would, but obviously it didnt.

Too much fuel was dumping, so that it wouldn't ignite. Problem I had.
