Groups of nilpotent length four containing a subgroup which covers and avoids the same chief factors as an -injector for some Fitting class but which is not itself an -injector have been constructed by F.P. Lockett (in his PhD thesis) and T.R. Berger and John Cossey (in preparation). Graham A. Chambers (J. Algebra 16 (1970), 442–455) has shown that such a subgroup cannot exist in a group of p–length one for all primes p. The main result of this paper closes the small gap remaining: it includes Chambers' result and establishes also that such a subgroup cannot exist in a group of nilpotent length three.
