    Top Feed Fuel Injector O-rings

    There is someone on ebay that sells top feed injector o-ring kits for ~ $24. Includes new injector filters too. Cheaper than going to Subaru. I've used these several times successfully. In a pinch (literally, when you pinch an o-ring and dump fuel all over your motor :meh: ) this doesn't work unless you want to wait for shipping.

    Turns out the 97 Toyota Camry 4 cylinder (and some 281 other Toyota models, I just used the Camry as my example) gives you the same thing. It includes a small o-ring for the top, the upper rubber isolator, and the lower rubber seal. There is also a large o-ring that we don't need.

    O'Reilly sells it under p/n BWD 274531.

    CHECK THE BOX! One O'reilly only had boxes with 2 large o-rings. The other o'reilly had the correct assortment. Cost is $4. If you don't need/want the fuel injector filters it's cheaper than the ebay kit and available now.

    Does my '02 WRX have top feed injectors? I don't know what that means. If not, what kind of O rings, etc. can I use?

    Yes.

    Top feed = fuel rail fits on top of injector. Fuel flows top to bottom. Believe all wrx are top feed as are 07+ sti.


    Side feed = injector fits onto rail. Fuel flows in side and out bottom. Some STi's were side feed.

    Special order for me. So I have to paying the 7.99 freight charge plus the actual item. Item is about the same. Employee discount does not apply for special orders.
