"Tecata" had already meant heroin for decades -- both in NYC and in Puerto Rico -- when I learned the word in the early 80's.When I lived Puerto Rico in 82-83, the most common words for junk were "tecata" and "manteca".
I've never heard a junky called anything else but "un tecato" (or "una tecata", if a woman)by Boricuas.
"Quiero capear tecata" -- "I want to cop some junk".
