My #4 fuel injector connector on my '70 1.7 is routinely coming loose and falling out of the injector. I'd like to get a new connector to put onto my harness. Anyone know where I can get these? I'd rather not have to solder to the injector connector tabs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

Jeff: I would prefer to use the correct connector, but you offer no advice on where to procure such connectors. Furthermore, I wonder how many people have actual intact rubber boots on their injectors after 35 years (that is, boots with some remaining elasticity and no cracks). So maybe these are available new somewhere too?
So I agree that using the right part is usually preferable to hacking something up. I think one of the reasons people do this kind of stuff (and I hate it) is because of ignorance. In my case, and it seems others, there is ignorance on where to get these components. This ignorance could be corrected, and I think one of the biggest successes of this forum is to spread knowledge like this. Anyway, unless I find a source for the CORRECT connectors I'll probably take 3liter's advice, as it seems fairly well thought out. -Tony |
