Hey guys, I just picked up a set of 0280155700 injectors for my 91. They obviously don't have the adapter to make them longer so can I get away with using double O rings on the bottom of them to seal up?

So i guess the answer to this question requires a degree in rocket science?

How did you get the second o ring on the bottom?

Just use the same size as the other one on the bottom of the injector and lube it with transmission fluid to ease install. I've had mine on for 8 months with no problems.
