[Supras] Injector plug busted

Glen:


I did see the thread you mentioned but it appeared to be for the N/A 
injector connectors, so I did not give it much credence.  The 7MGE was 
mentioned specifically, to the exclusion of the 'GTE in the thread you 
mentioned.  boogiesurfer wrote to the thread you mentioned in 2007 about 
getting a few connectors, again for the N/A.  Since I have a GTE I do 
not know if the connectors are the same. 


There is another answer for injector connectors if the latches break 
off:  use a thin bead of non-acetic acid curing RTV to hold the male and 
female connector shells together.  The common silicone or RTV produces 
acetic acid during curing from moisture in the air, causing contact 
corrosion.  The connectors will remain reasonably tight but can still be 
removed, using a thin enough sealer bead.  One possibility is DOW 738 
electrical sealant. 


Re:  Elnhurst Toyota now comes up as Advantage Toyota in Long Island.  
Guess I do not understand how they could have connector parts if they 
are not distributed in the USA.  Do they get them specifically for US 
customers? 


Doing electronics work, AMP does a number of custom limited run special 
connectors for various purposes.  It does not mean that they will always 
be available.
