           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.
