    I've done a mod or two
    Those parts are technically separate, they don't come in a set, there is a distinct possibility this can happen and rockauto tell you that.

    Welp, imma just run the new off pattern one till a replacement comes in. Truck starts great even with the mixed set and it's missing that noticeable stumble when the AC compressor kicks on like the old ones had.

    So imma say I definitely needed to change em:laughing:

    I don't understand why they bother selling them individually and not as a pair, seems like that would alleviate that issue. They told him to send both back and order again.

    Possibility of getting two different arms and having to deal with sending them back and risk it happening again...seems counter intuitive.

    On the other hand, it is cool you can get the new design SPCs for cheap...if you're lucky enough to get 2 of them and not just one

    It's for the little cups that the injectors stick into on the manifold

    I think

    That's what I think I deduced as well. It makes sense cause it was only in 3 of the 4 injectors I bought. And the 3 it were in were rebuilt denso ones (even though I ordered 4 new) that 4th one is really different however the truck didn't seem to notice on the test drive.

    Still gunna replace it tho so all 4 match equally

    Booming for sellers. I beat out around a dozen offers, at least one of them cash for a place that hit the market 4 days ago. Some people just flat out cant find a house right now due to the immense demand and no inventory.

    Yeah Im stoked but also stressed haha. Home was a foreclosure that someone bought and gutted. All new floors, windows, water heater, appliances, repaved the driveway, re-landscaped, all interior walls painted, they used the original cabinets but I think they re stained them or something. Its move in ready. Only thing it needs is a deck out back. But the price of wood isnt gonna let that happen any time soon.
