Angry injector insulators, needed?

Hey guys, I just got my injectors back from Marren Fuel Injection today, and they took off my 2 month old insulators and threw them away. Will the injectors seat and seal okay? Or should I call Marren and ask them for new insulators? Or what?

Kinda pissed..

Before anything, did they replace the Filter and O-ring too?

As for the Upper/Lower Grommets, some places don't stock the particular sizes but that doesn't allow them to toss them out. I'd demand a credit at the shop or funds to buy new ones.

Heck, I just had my TII FI's machined cleaned and they placed the old ones In the 4 FI zip lock bags I provided to them.

i think i'm onto something, if you don' thave the insulators, you will have a vaccum leak...and that will cause problems

am i wrong?

my symptoms are:

i have to hold the throttle to the floor to get it to crank, and 1-3.5k rpms it wants to stuttter and die/bog and backfire, but above that it starts to pickup a little better, but it's never certain

No insulators? Don't even bother trying to drive the car. Your going to have a big vacuum leak in four places. Buy some from Mazdatrix.....or????PePBoys????Autzone?????? I know that Steve's Foriegn Car Parts on Vickery carry them.

You have a bad sending unit/float. Buy one from the wreckyard or Mazdatrix.com. Or, trouble shoot from the free, online factory manual at http://www.iluvmyrx7.com
