Default Injectors?

Does injector colour matter? I only ask as mine a ticking and need a change and I've picked up a fuel rail with orange injectors for £15 on eBay will they be ok for my 1.4 Furio?

Buy like for like.

No point in sticking diff injectors in off a VTR/S and so on.

It does not say much in the listing the part numbers would need to be checked to establish what the flow rates are.
If the flow rate is lower than your current injectors the engine will run lean which will result in the engine running hot.
On the other hand if the injectors have a higher flow rate than your current injectors the engine will run rich which will be a problem for the emissions especialy at mot time.

so you have black injectors then, but really that's meaningless, you need to look at the part numbers.
