I spend way more time on Honda/Acura boards then here, and I have still yet to see a leaky PD post about any Honda. That's really weird if they are the same thing, at similar fuel pressure and overall age. I'm not doubting you, it's just kinda suprising.

I have seen more than a hand full of Hondas with Denso PDs have their PD's leak.
There is even a informal factory recall if you bring a mid-eighties Honda Accord in with it leaking and complain about it.

i may be wrong, but i sense that you were trying to defend for the fc. and if you were, i'd like to tell you that cars are not supposed to catch on fire, even at a rate of every 10 years. hondas are simply better engineered cars for this part. and if you weren't trying to defend for the fc, please ignore the immediate above opnion.

Maybe the reason our PD's fail prematurely is because the injectors work twice as often per Engine Revolution as they do in a piston motor? Just a thought.
What do u guys think?

would you mind sharing your source for this info?
they may have the same PD (i'm don't know about this, but they sure look the same), but they're mounted differently. the fc's PD is a male end, whereas the honda one is a female end. they are not interchangable. even the inlet ports on the PD's are different.

As far as the PD failure thing, check the compliants on the NTSHA. But then people say the S5 PD doesn't leak either...

i just replaced mine about a week ago... just some word of advice turn the PD hand tight then u will need a 21 and 23 wrenches turn it about 180 degress and thats it... make sure all the fuel lines are tight!!! ( i had to take out the dynamic chamber twice since my fuel lines were loose) even if you think they are not just go ahead and give them a lil turn or go buy 50 cent clamps
