Injector Plug

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could buy a plug that will plug into the stock injector plugs?

If you can't find them new, the 90's Miata used the same connector. The Spec Miata guys usually have tons of them and other bits of their wiring harnesses laying around.

I'm looking for the other side of the plug like the plug attached to the injector. I don't want to splice in my new injector connector I want to make a small harness that plugs into the original connector.

It probably would be easier if you wrote what you are looking for in a slightly different way.

You are looking for a plug which is the same as what is on the injector itself, to be able to plug into the harness side of the connection.

OK, I guess you have aftermarket injectors that use a different plug and want to have a short adapter that plugs into the stock injector connector then plugs into the aftermarket injector?

I asked my buddy Mr. Google and found this site -

http://www.connectorsfast.com

They have a ton of injector connectors, including male NipponDenso connectors, you can use those to make a small adapter harness.

BUT, I would strongly recommend biting the bullet and properly wiring in the new injector connectors. An adapter like that is simply a point of failure and it takes VERY little of an injector not firing at full duty cycle to pop an engine. I'd get a pre-made pigtail of the connector you need, strip back the wiring just behind the stock connector, solder/heat shrink it in there, and you'll be solid. This way you can leave the stock plugs in place.

^You could make the same argument about plug-and-play harnesses for MAP sensors but they're usually reliable. I trust machine crimps and OEM connectors over solder joints.

^I'm not sure about that. A proper soldered connection is much better than a crimped connector. And DaleClark thanks for the link.

Perhaps I didn't explain. I was referring to a plug-and-play jumper harness, like the one Banzai Racing includes with a 3 bar GM MAP sensor. Jumper harnesses use OEM plugs. In the case of the map sensor, it is a 3 pin Delphi connector for the GM side and 3 pin Tyco/Amp connector to plug into the Mazda factory wiring. OEM plugs are made by machine crimping pins on the end of wires and then inserting them into plastic recepticles. That's how factory harnesses are made. Expensive tools are used in this process. I'm not referring to radio shack butt connectors and $3 Walmart crimping tools. Those are terrible.

We've got new connectors with pins.
