Hello Paul,
I can remember some discussion on fuel injectors in previous news.
There was some discussion on not using the fuel defuser in front of
the injector, what was the reason for and against the plastic
defuser.
The sealing arrangement for the fuel injectors looks a bit suspect for
leakage but I haven't heard of many cars on fire through the leakage of
fuel in fuel injected vehicles.
It would be nice if they screwed in and sealed with fuel line done the
same.

One of the reasons I advocate putting the fuel injector on the cool
side of the engine. An in-flight fire has ruined more that one
persons whole day.
The plastic diffuser are supposed to enhance the mix of air and fuel.
I suspect this is more of an issue at car use at low HP levels.
Nothing against its use.
