i have an extra stock 1jz ecu for manual tranny. it has a blown cap for injectors 3/5 . so i took it apart and found it and got the #s from it. i went to my local radio shack and the best they could give me was a 2.2uF electrolytic cap but it is non polarized. does that matter ? i was also wondering if it is even the correct size ? the # i got from the old one looked like it was a 220 uF ....i dont know this stuff very well . so any insight would be very usefull and if i get some good answers it could really benefit many of the fellow 1j'ers in this forum with such a common problem. especially since the cap they had in stock was 99 cents.

Read this, Driftmotion fixes them. I would have them do it instead of "trying" to fix it yourself. I'm not doubting your ability. But, I would have it done right. Isn't expensive at all either.

yeah i know they can do it , thats not the issue though . i am just curious to know if thats the correct part or if i am way off base and need a polarized capacitor of a different value. i appreciate your help though . thanks !
The uf and voltage ratings are very important. I wouldn't substitute anything other then a slightly higher voltage rating if possible.
