New injectors look different

I bought a set of injectors for my car on e-bay.They are bright yellow in color look to be brand new. The end of the injector that goes in the intake looks smaller and has a smaller hole. These injectors are supose to be better than stock. Do any of you have these or have you seen them?

The yellow colour may mean they are Accel injectors. Maybe cross reference the P/N on the injector (assuming there is one) with Accels catalog or website to make sure you got the right ones.

I just put a set of Accel 24's in my 406............the body of them is only partly yellow, with black bottoms. Here's a pic to compare your's to my known Accels............

Ummmm.... I really hope you know what those injectors are rated at or you will be having some serious A/F ratio problems..... ASFAIK, the color does not coincide with what kind of flow they are rated at (ie more than one size injector may be yellow).

Mine look just like the ones shown here.I was told they are 24lb. rated. The part of the injector that sticks in the intake is more of a nozzle.

If they are Accel's they will have a 24 engraved/printed in them.........
