I got an injector reseal kit (my NA 86 944) from Advance auto parts and the hat was blue and a bit taller than the orange caps. It looks like it will work just stick into the intake hole about 10 or 15 thousands more i would guess, it snaps on ok. Anyone used the blue hats or any ones a bit taller like this and if so did they work alright? Where can you buy the OEM orange ones?
thanks

I ran a set of blue caps on mine for about 5000 miles and noticed no diffrence.
When I did the rebuild, I got the proper set from NAPA of all places. (Forgot to get it from Paragon, and ran out of time).

I just did a reseal on my injectors with the blue ones. They weren't taller, I think the snap ring on the inside locates them at a different position on the injector. If you look at the bottom the injector pin doesn't stick thru as far. I got mine at a local import house. I didn't notice any problems. Don't forget to lube the top "o" rings before pushing on the fuel rail or you might roll a seal!

Your local Porsche dealer has the "Orange Caps" in the Injector Valve Gasket kit - part number 944-110-901-00. Kit ran $3.91 each at my dealer, or $15.64 for a set. Probably could have saved 10% if I'd flashed my PCA membership card.
