What year Corvette? (1982?)

Pictures about the weatherstripping would help ID the part you're questioning.
It sounds like you're asking about the rear weatherstrip retainer. These are at the rear roof and mate with the vertical rear edge of the door window glass.

I'm really unclear if he's talking about the retainer on the A piller weather strip or what.
pic's really help more than usual when English isn't your first language.
As per injectors, only 82's have them stock. But we have no history on this car. Many earlier cars have been modified with EFI.
OP. Have you tested fuel pressure?
