16v Injector Shrouds...

[ranahan@charter.net (John Erickson)]

I bet half the people out there have broken shrouds.  Your 
injectors will be hotter (especially just sitting in 
traffic) than the design intended.  I don't think it 
really hurts much.  It will cook your o-rings a little 
faster.  BTW, if the shroud on cylinder #1 is broken, none 
of them work.  The air is drawn in at #1, then passes over 
2, 3, 4 and goes into the intake manifold.
