injector install HELP!!
 
Well i hit a problem, finishin up...
i have rc 440cc injectors, and they do not fit properly in, i use the greenish bushing i guess that come with them, but it seems to be a really really tight fit... any suggestions on installing these.

where are they not fitting....the fuel rail? or the manifold?
If its the manifold, you might need to dremel out the hole in the grommet a little bit.

ya they are not fitting in to the manifold, so dremel out manifold a bit? lol i have been loaftin on this, as u can see andrew, sooon it will be done

exactly, DO NOT dremel out the manifold....enlarge the hole in the o-ring that sits in the manifold. This will allow the larger injector to fit into the o-ring.

this should help

no no the o-ring, fits around the injector perfectly, its just that putting them in the manifold after is very tight

imported_italstallion 30-May-2006 02:07 PM

well it should be very tight but if its too tight that u cant fit the injectors in take a dremel with the bit that has a sandpaper roll around out and shave it down a little bit.

putting them in the manifold is tight? so it fits, just tight? Thats fine.. lube up the outside a LITTLE bit.. and tighten the fuel rail on top of them and see if they stay in place. If not just take a tad off the outside of the o-ring with whatever you have handy

ya i m going to shave a little off the outside of the o-rings, i was just wondering if there was a special technique or if i was missing something.. thanks everyone

just make sure u go ina circular fashion dont dremel a big indent in one part of the ring and do it little at a time.you can always take more off but you can never add more.
