    Mine were brittle and all broke, and I'm having a helluva' time finding these! Where can I get them and what are they called? Thanks.

    If you are talking about the piece that holds the o-ring on, it's unnecessary. It's only there to hold the ring. And the rings will hold on to install w/o worries, will sit on the head when you remove. They won't go into the head as they are larger than the injector hole.
    I drink..so consider that when reading my posts.

    It appears as if the O-ring is seated on the piece; so it's fine if it's seated directly on the injector?
