well test his theory go grab some o-rings or some injectors from garys and try it out i saw that car on craigslist i think the hatch ef your talk about and itcould be something having to do with the motor swap since i do thing that that motor is well obd2 or soemthign like that but im not sure he may have done a mpfi swap i forget if it was a si or not but yea alot of things could be at fault if he did a mpfi swap

yea true id say just go and grab some obd0 injectors or o-rings and see or could justuse the o-rings from your car and test that out and see...if it still stalls then walk away because it looks decent but yea idk somethign about it just dosent seem right exspecially if it has a b-series motor in it and he wants to trade ya not saying your cars crap or anything but in a straight up trade youd be making out if the leaky injector is all that is wrong....idk id just go and try to see if the o-ring theory holds up since o-rings arecheap
