Injector o-rings from subaruparts.com

The ones I ordered were #15 (part# 16698AA060) and.....



I got whats in the bag (same part#, wrong part). Is the diagram wrong or did subaruparts.com make a mistake?



I got a generic injector o-ring kit from Autozone who's computer said it would work for the SVX (the brown one) It's way bigger than the stock one that came out and every one I tried to put in got crushed and cut. They will not squeeze in like they should (just too big)



Are the replacement oem o-rings really that much bigger? or is Autozone full of ****.

Re: Injector o-rings from subaruparts.com

it looks like you got the one that goes at the top of the injector and not the bottom. you should replace them both. autozone is full of it. just buy a metric assortment of o-rings and you should be able to get the right size, or buy ones for a sentra that has drop in injectors. they are the same size.

Buy the ones for the 370cc nissan injectors; they are the same size, but should be much, much easier to find.

http://www.deatschwerks.com/o-ring-kits for example. I think the nissan side feed 6-cyl kit is what you want.

Re: Injector o-rings from subaruparts.com

I put the injectors back in with the old o-rings. I did use the ones that were sent but it is the bottom ones I needed. I was trying to get it back together today to make it for the autocross tomorrow and ran all over town to find someone who might have the right ones. I tried Subaru and Nissan dealers and they all would have to order them. I tried every kit that the parts stores had and nothing was right. It'll run good enough tomorrow and I'll fix it later.
Thanks for the replies.
