Hi there. I afraid not, i just looked in the microcat software and the injectors have different codes so they do not match...

Are you having problems with the injectors ? I have manualy cleaned mine on the 2.3.

Well i used some "stone-age" technique. After great care extracting them from the fuel ramp I made a hose that gets over the nozzle of the injector, and connoted it to a syringe. Also in the process i have used a 9V low current transformer power supply. I have filled the syringe with isopropilic alcohol. Applied the voltage to the injector and then pumped the fluid through it. Because you are flushing the injector in the oposit way that it's working all the creep, rust and dirt comes out. Also you could use a can of carb cleaner because it's already pressurized.

WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING WARING

Do not apply voltage to the injector for more than a few seconds (2-3) because it can burn out. I did this to my 2.3 and to my ex car which was a 1.4 Clio engine powerd car. On both time the result was great. Especially on the 1.4 which you could build a small sand castle with the dirt extracted from them. The Scorpio injectors have their own filter mounted to their body (on the 2.3)

Later edit: To check if they are ok. Take a piece of glass / mirror and after you back-flush it shake it a bit then use short bursts of electricity to make it squirt on the glass. If it's only drooling it still needs cleaning. If it makes small atomizations it's OK
