| Those discs are brittle and have something to do with the spray pattern. I've seen them run with and without them and it doesn't seem to make any difference in the long run. As far as I know they aren't part of a typical injector service kit (mainly O-rings) and are pretty hard to come by. | |

| I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Mr. Injector replaces those discs as part of rebuild service. I got a set back with all intact - could've sworn one was chipped beforehand. _________________ '05 GTO 6.0L • 6-spd • 95k miles • 0-60: 4.8s • 16.9 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:26'95 Celica GT 2.2L • 5-spd • 165k miles • 0-60: yes'98 SC Riviera • 281k miles • 298 HP/370 TQ • 0-60: 5.79s • ET: 13.97 @ 99.28 • 4087 lb • 20.1 avg MPG • Nelson Ledges Lap: 1:30 3.4" pulley • AL104 plugs • 180º t-stat • FWI w/K&N • 1.9:1 rockers • OR pushrods • LS6 valve springs • SLP headers • ZZP fuel rails KYB GR2 struts • MaxAir shocks • Addco sway bars • UMI bushings • GM STB • Enkei 18" EV5s w/ Dunlop DZ101s • F-body calipers EBC bluestuff/Hawk HP plus • SS lines • Brembo slotted discs • DHP tuned • Aeroforce • Hidden Hitch^^^ SOLD ^^^ '70 Ninety-Eight Holiday Coupe 455cid • 116k miles^^^ SOLD ^^^ | |

| Mr. Injector says he replaces filters, o-rings, spacers and pintle caps. I'm assuming the pintle caps are what I'm missing.
So, for $85.50 (includes shipping), I can get perfectly cleaned injectors. Hmm. | |
