Fuel Injector Plug Insert Pins

[eric schumacher]

Hi=20
I didn't look in the catalog to see the parts you outlined but a couple of
years ago I got a couple of hundred from AMP as samples.  The secret was to
order the ones on a strip(for automatic instalation) not the loose ones (for
manual installation) since they are much more common. They are easy to cut
from the strip.=20

Lotsa luck Eric
