I pulled my inlet and injectors today and somehow managed to crack one of the pintle caps so it no longer engages tightly on the injector. I have some injectors from a 2.0 engine, can I fit one of the caps on to a 2.5 injector?

probably but the the fueling may be wrong as the cc rating of the injector will probably be less as its out of a 2.0

I'll be using a 2.5 injector but with the cap from a 2.0.
