Thanks Ed, I thought that they would pull down more than they did (primary ones), am not using the plastic dispersers under the injector. Is this okay and could this be a reason for some looseness?

When I put the injectors in and tighten down the fuel rail, I expect to be able to move (Twist) the injectors meeting a small amount of resistance.  The injectors O rings generally offer a small amount of resistance when you place them in the rail as the ring is compressed slightly going in.  Not a very scientific description, but hope it helps.

I believe I paid about $5 a set for "all the seals" for the Mazda injector at O'Reily auto parts. However, the primary injectors turn easily in the port. Is this normal for them to spin or are they actually the wrong size?

Yea. I think they're $36 / ring or something disgusting like that. I used O rings from a $4 pack of 10 at autozone

 

Actually I paid $26 for a set of three.  These were what they call the “insulators” that go at the bottom – rings with rectangular x-section.  Price is bad, but not horrible.
