So I bought a set of siemens deka 550cc injectors off ebay, but the guy sent me the domestic ones. Will these work if i just put the foreign style o-ring on the end? Or should i just see if i can get the guy to swap them out?

True, i wasnt going to leave it like that, i just dont have the money right now to get the correct ones and i dont know if i can get ahold of the guy again to get the right ones. I was just hoping someone had done this before and knew if it worked or not.

If I didn't get a completely definite answer from someone that I would trust is telling the truth saying "Yes, this works." I would stay away from it. Fuel isn't something you want to be messing with. All it takes is a little leak and the next thing you know you've got a BBQ for an engine bay.

If you are referring to the fact that the o-ring is simply different for domestic, why would anything else matter? They are 2-3 ohm resistance rated at 550cc. If the flow chart shows them to be accurate, what else is the difference? If IIRC correctly I looked this up and the part number is the same as Driftmotion is selling, just the o-ring is different... I know this is an older thread, but I did the same thing, he is an injector dealer I think out of Florida who happens to have an ebay store... they were only $285 for a set of 6 in my case... but I am not done getting mine 100% so perhaps I will regret at some point also...
