I am looking for the two pieces that are the nozzle, not the entire injector. The ones that failed were etched as made in India. One of them failed almost instantly and the other two were getting there. On examination, there were scratches on the needle end....some big ones....basically indicating they were not hardened correctly. Three of them seemed to be just fine...looked fine under magnification as well.

As for deep pockets, have a couple other car nuts involved that love the challenge and feel the same as I about quality parts.
