Yes they look fine, not sure what the blue ring on the two is for but not anything of concern. I would put them in and send your old ones out for cleaning and flow testing and keep them as backups.

I second the idea Kuch has to have the old ones cleaned and flow tested and keep them as spares.
Jeff I did put a multimeter on them and they came up at 2.2 ohms each.
That is the plan, get these old ones cleaned and flow tested. Already lined the guy up to do it.
All right guys thanks again, I'll post back once I know.
Hey guys, just wanted to share my experience with you.
SMP called me today. I didn't really catch this guy's job title, but it was kind of like the last guy I talked to.
A second person with the company taking calls that knows what they're talking about versus somebody asking you yes or no questions off a computer.
Anyways here's the scoop:
He says he doesn't know how, obviously something to do with rockauto, but it would appear that two of the injectors I have were made in 2020, the other two were made in 2009. That doesn't mean there's anything wrong with them if course.
That's what the four digit number on the injectors is. It tells them the month and year or something like that. He said it doesn't help them at all when they're trying to figure out what decade they came from, but that that is not usually an issue.
He says there really shouldn't be anything wrong with them at all, he doubts he would hesitate to put them in his car. But just in case...Check this out!
He said he's going to have four injectors sent to the lab flow matched and then he's going to send them to me with the information from the lab so I'll know exactly what I'm putting in he says.
Fantastic customer service! I don't really think they owe that to me, but I'll certainly take it and sing their praises
Hey guys, the box from SMP showed up today with my new injectors. They sent along the lab data, not sure if it's something interesting to look at or not. Just thought I'd put it up if anyone's interested in looking.
I just noticed that the injectors also have little numbers on them to identify which one is which. I guess that's probably normal. Does that mean anything to me? Like should they go in a certain spot?
