Injector color

my truck had orange color from ford. Well I ordered 8 new injectors chasing a lean code and the code went away but after further research. Every color means a different rate like orange is 19#. We'll napa sent me pink. Are these still 19# just a different color because napa. Or are they the 21# that the pink usually is.

Thanks

They could be 19lb but they are going to be a newer style that may or may not be compatible with your truck. Do they have the same connector style? What is the measured resistance across the terminals? Compatible injectors should measure between 12-15 ohms.

well to be honest they are already on the truck and it seems to be running fine, I was just more curious than anything. Ford mostly uses the same style and connector style. Like the 2000 lightning injectors are 42# and would plug right in but it would obviously be rich. I was just curios mostly if they gave me the wrong injectors and I am now running a 21#

If fuel milage is good and the motor runs as expected then I think you are alright, obviously the connector is the same so these would be compatible injectors.
