Question yet more questions about the fuel injecotrs

i just recently had my injectors cleaned and my problem is this:

i went to put them in today and the fit nice a tight in the fuel rail but they ar very loose in the manifold. i can actaully move them around after tightning everthing down.

did injector.com mess something up and put the wrong caps on? or do they usually fit like this i dont remember how they fit before i took them off but i do remember having to pull on them pritty hard to get them out. am i missing a part?

all i did to send them was take them out of the rail and manifold dissconnect the wire wrap them in a shop towl and stick them in a box and mail them. i never actually inspected them so im not to sure what i would be looking for if i was missing a part.

...like in all my post sorry about the spelling...

You should have bought new upper and lower grommets along with new o'rings for them.

One rubber grommet on the lower part of the injector, one grommet on the top of the injector and one brand spanking new 0'ring.

New grommets will still allow the injector to rotate, but not nearly as easy as an old, brick hard, no resilency used one. Go to Mazdatrix.com for pictures or the online factory service manuals.

Dunno if this one matters, but there's a rectangular rubber one that goes between the electrical connector and the injector. Probably for keeping liquids out. I was able to re-use those, but had to get new ones for what Hailers talked about.

Providing you changed the Upper/LowerGrommets, O'rings and ensured a tight fit, than you probably mixed up the bolts that retain the Secondary Fuel Rail In place. Try switching the bolts around and see what happens.

sorry i wrot ethat real fast when i was on my way ou tthe door to go to school this morning the bolts are obviously not the same but i got the right ones for the right rails.

i guess hailers is right but they injectors actually dont fit in to the holes inside the manifold would the old gormets still be in the holes? caue they are mostl likely hard as a rock like most of my vacume lines
