Removal & Installation: Injectors: Removal
- On transverse-mounted V6 engines (front wheel drive), it may be necessary to perform the following procedure in order to remove injectors.
- Rotate intermediate steering shaft so steering gear stub shaft clamp bolt is accessible. Remove clamp bolt. Disconnect intermediate shaft from stub shaft.
- Remove engine-to-body support strut. Place floor jack under front crossmember of the cradle. Raise jack until jack just starts to raise vehicle.
- Remove the 2 front engine cradle-to-body mount bolts with lower cushions and back-up washers. Remove cushions from bolts.
- Thread body mount bolts with back-up washers a minimum of 3 threads into cage nuts so that bolts restrain cradle movement. Release floor jack slowly until crossmember contacts body mount bolt retainers.
- On V8 engine, disconnect fuel line from injector. Use back-up wrench on upper injector hex. Cap injector and lines. Remove injector. Remove copper nozzle gasket from cylinder head if gasket did not remain on injector.
