Fuel Delivery: Rail-Fuel: Installation: 5.7L
- If fuel injectors are to be installed, refer to INJECTOR-FUEL .
- Clean out fuel injector machined bores in intake manifold.
- Apply a small amount of engine oil to each fuel injector o-ring. This will help in fuel rail installation.
- Position fuel rail/fuel injector assembly to machined injector openings in intake manifold.
- Guide each injector into intake manifold. Be careful not to tear injector o-rings.
- Push right side of fuel rail down until fuel injectors have bottomed on shoulders. Push left fuel rail down until injectors have bottomed on shoulders.
- Install 4 fuel rail holdown clamps and 4 mounting bolts (2) and (3). Refer to Torque Specifications .
- Position spark plug cable tray (7) and cable assembly to intake manifold. Snap 4 cable tray retaining clips into intake manifold.
