My LS recently broke what I'd assume was one of the original injectors, so I called up my O'Reilly guys to get me a replacement in (PN# FJ581). The one I received from them had a much different nozzle design (see picture) than the original, and what was advertised on the website (see picture). I know parts manufacturers can update parts designs, but when I tried the injector my car began heavily backfiring.

I returned the part to O'Reilly and ordered one from AutoZone (PN# 800-1593N) which now seems to be made from the same manufacturer. I've not installed the one from AutoZone out of fear of them not returning a used injector (My local AZ has a bunch of sticklers working there). Was I ordering two of the wrong parts this whole time or is this on the manufacturer for messing up? Either way, if anyone has ordered and injector for a B18B1 engine recently and it's worked fine, please let me know so I can snag one to get back on the road.

from my understanding all b18 variants share the same OEM fuel injectors. they are all 240cc injectors with the difference being the fuel pressure each engine runs. i ordered AUS reman'ed injectors MP-55058 from autozone and havent had any problems.

I do not know what that injector in the picture is all about. But that is not right. Most civics & integras use 240cc injectors. Except for a few select civic models. Like the B8 & Y7, they use 190cc.

The important question is if you have obd1 or obd2 injectors. Obd1 has metal clips on plastic connectors & obd2 has plastic clips. Also, you cant just replace one injector on an old car. Unless the 3 other injectors are new as well. They will all flow different & cause your car to run bad & idle poorly.

Instead of buying 1 new injector, get some used ones from a junk yard or ebay/offerup or from someone here. And then get them professionally ultrasonic cleaned & flow tested. It's not that expensive. And your motor will thank you.

This may have been where I've gone wrong. Got an injector from the junkyard, didn't solve the issue 100%. I'll go with getting a new set coming in, hopefully they can come before Tuesday so I can show of my teggy at school on our first day. I still find the plastic nozzle design weird, but none the less thanks for the help everyone!
