       Paul,
       Do you happen to have a picture of a Mazda "Oval head" 550cc fuel
       injector.  I'm trying to locate some connectors and the parts
   guy needs
       a picture.  I'm an hour from the airport.

       Thanks,
       Mark S.


       Hmmmmm that is the 3rd gen injector. Right? Here is what I have.

   Paul,
   I found them at Five-O Motorsport.  While not cheap, the guy I spoke
   with verified that the Nippondenso connectors would fit the Mazda "oval
   head" injectors.  I ordered a set and will try them this weekend.

   I had tried using the square head connector and they were not fitting
   very well, sort of like the proverbial square peg in the round hole
   scenario.  So, I decided to replace them with the correct ones.

   It would be helpful if you could put pictures of the various Mazda
   injectors on your site (in your spare time).  ;-)

   You can download all the shop manuals from:

   That is where that picture came from.

Yes, but its hard to beat a good photo, especially over the
illustrations in some of the manuals.  I just thought it would be
helpful for the newbies to see pictures of the different types of
injectors we commonly refer to in our posts.  Also, I was shopping for
connectors for my "oval head" injectors and the supplier wanted to see a
picture in order to confirm that his would fit.  I didn't have a
picture, and I'm an hour from the airport.  I wanted to get the order
placed today so I could have them by next weekend.  So, I was looking
for a picture I could send him.  I never did find a picture with a clear
shot of the connector portion.  Locating the correct connectors can be a
real PITA.  I ended up ordering a set from Five-O Motorsport.

Next time you are at the hangar take a picture :)

I don't have any 550cc injectors.
