Installation Procedure

    CAUTION:
    • Use care when servicing the fuel system components, especially the fuel injector electrical connectors, the fuel injector tips, and the injector O-rings. Plug the inlet and the outlet ports of the fuel rail in order to prevent contamination.
    • Do not use compressed air to clean the fuel rail assembly as this may damage the fuel rail components.
    • Do not immerse the fuel rail assembly in a solvent bath in order to prevent damage to the fuel rail assembly.

  1. If the injectors were removed from the fuel rail, lubricate the new fuel injector O-ring seals with clean engine oil.
  2. Install the new fuel injector O-ring seals on to the fuel injectors.
  3. Install the fuel injectors to the fuel rail using new retainer clips.
  4. Ensure that the injectors are aligned by orientating the electrical connectors perpendicular to the crankshaft centerline.
  5. Lubricate and install the new O-ring seals on the spray tip end of each injector.
