go here: http://www.mrinjector.us/ or Here: http://www.lindertech.com/injparts.htm

I was looking at the second site and they have a list of trouble prone injectors and one them is this:

. Application: Ford 4.6L “F & W”, 5.0L “F, N & T” 5.4L “L” and 5.8L “H & R” 1993 - 2002
Type: Bosch
Symptom: This is a durable injector but it likes to be well maintained. Most of them become restricted because of fuel contamination. Sometimes the pintle caps are missing. The caps are important and new ones need to be placed back on the injector before installation.
Resistance: 14.0 – 16.0 ohms at room temperature.
Recommendation: Reconditioned injectors work great! Take a fuel sample and let it sit overnight to make sure there is no major contamination problem exists.

well i checked with napa and carquest and they both told me you couldnt get them any more, so i called checker and behold they had the kits, each kit has two seals the flat spacer and a pintle, think all six kits were about $25.00, i would think a place nap or carquest would carry them but not to and then to tell me that you cant get them any more, i guess they figured id buy a complete set of new injectors, in fact one place was looking them as he told me you couldnt get them any more, what a joke, horaay for checker. Part Number: 274081

I am pretty sure Standard Ignition has them, part number HK9325 That is the number on the box I have, or if you cant find them, I will sell you a cap for $20.00 each. !

Naa. Go online and check if you can find them, or someone who sells standard parts.
