Question Fuel Injector Nozzle cap?

I just got some used injectors and I was trying to take off the old injector grommets and the plastic cap, around the nozzle on the bottom of the injector, cracked and the cap came off with the grommet, how important are these caps? can I find new ones at a Fuel injection specialty store. They don't look like there very crutial but I have no idea. I can take pics if you don't understand what I'm saying

The caps hold the seal on, you can get them at Mazdatrix.

pintle cap

Item 13-MZTX-002

Is that the right one?

sweet thanks thats exactly the one, could I still reused the cracked one if its only cracked of the side? I guess I should prolly just a new one, but if the only function of it is to hold the grommet on then it should still work, but it's only 2 bucks....

It could cause you some vac leaks if you reuse it.

I have Inquired on these green caps myself. Apparently the local dealership does not offer these alone. You must buy the Injector to have this Included. Good to know Mazdatrix stocks them, should I need them.
