Full service automotive shop specializing in fuel injection and forced induction performance
T I have the twin to it here I just wanted to go over it and say that it's probably a good idea to go in here. We tried to do the best we can to get any burrs in here that out of here but going here with a Scotch Brite pad and just touch it up to see maybe there might be some residual in there to clean that up so you don't rip any of the O-rings. Using this here today it's just a white lithi You could use Vaseline or multi-purpose grease or anyt T It's putting the rail on externally w Start off by applying some grease to it. Just rotate it gently w It goes in pretty easy. It's a lot easier to do it off the truck. I know that some people might not want to do that because if you're using an old injector you have the chance of it coming apart inside the head. It's really just the chance you're going to have to take otherwise you may have issues ripping O-rings putting the rails on. If that is the case then you just got to take the chances. T I want to show another way after t Now on these I'm not going to install the copper washers just because these are fresh injectors and they're not actually going to get installed into t It's just an example to show you how. All right, four injectors installed in the rail all evenly. Cut away here for a second then we'll go over the engine. All right, so we're at jig block here. I'll show you how to install the injectors. Got them in the rail obviously Drop the injectors down into place and pretty simple just work them down bit by bit. Obviously if you're doing it on the engine you may have some other obstacles but just put a little pressure down on the rail and work them down. You don't want to work one down more But basically you'll know when they're seated and basically when we develop these rails here there's about 30 000s or so per injector worth of O-ring so they'll move a little bit you can feel some a little bit of tension being put on them as you tighten them up but there's plenty of squish to soak up any variance between the injectors. There's actually measure between the injectors there's a fraction of that amount so really it just comes into play when you're installing the rail on the injectors themselves w Make sure they're going down. One thing to keep an eye on too is you can actually look at the top injectors obviously you're going to be working That'seated. That'seated. That'seated. You can see up there you're not going to be able to tell from the camera from the video but if you look up in here right where the rail seats on top of the injector itself you can see that they're all even so now what we'll do here in the next part we'll pause it again and we'll throw some air out of here and show you the seal. So that's bringing it up to 6 psi w
