In the N/A injectors ( D3156KA white band), they use a "plate" with two orifices. I recently purchased a "matched flow/pattern" set of rebuilt injectors.

4 of the injectors look identical in condition
1 injector looks like the nozzle plate is angled differently like 45 degrees off from where it should be
1 injector nozzle appears worn to the point it no longer separates the 2 streams (between them has been worn away)

Is this going to create different burn patterns and efficiency?
Should I request the two oddballs to be replaced?
Can the nozzle plate be rotated safely for the one out of position, or are they permanently in place or fragile?
Can the nozzles be replaced, such as with one from my original injectors?

Thanks!

 

I am answering my own questions at this point, feel free to correct me or add your knowledge :-)

- Is this going to create different burn patterns and efficiency? I believe it would, as any deviation from the 2 stream redirection would result in a different fuel load and thus burn.
- Should I request the two oddballs to be replaced? Absolutely.The seller claims "Condition: Clean new appearance" and "Flow matched and pattern tested"
- Can the nozzle plate be rotated safely for the one out of position, or are they permanently in place or fragile? I used a couple aluminum nails that fit nicely into the port holes and carefully rotated. The nozzle is NOT seated specifically aimed, at least not for this injector. It rotated easily enough back to optimal.
- Can the nozzles be replaced, such as with one from my original injectors? This I do not know. I have not seen any replacement parts, and the original appears to be snap-fit permanently in place, require it to be broken out if at all possible.
