Default Fuel Leak- Injector Question

Hey guys I found out two of my injectors on my 944T are bad... I had a set of low mileage NA 944 injectors and put them in. If I turn the boost off will this be ok for regular driving until my new ones get in?

Thanks for the help!

No, the impedance is different for turbo vs NA.

I know you can get seals locally (Pep boys?) for NA's. Not sure if the turbo ones are the same - might want to search for the thread with the part numbers/applications.

Ya I just bought new seals and put them on and they were leaking past the seals.. I got it to stop leaking now by using a ghetto method of two seals instead of one at the side that connects to the engine block. That'll atleast keep me from an engine fire until my new injectors arrive.

I had this happen on one of my injectors. I changed the seals about 20 times. Then the mechanic said your injector is bad. Its hard to see but sure enought the body split from the head.
