Installation
of Injectors Read the disclaimer before
installation
NOTE: Prior to starting this installation :
- Wash engine around valve cover if it is dirty.
- Park vehicle (vehicle will be disabled until completion
of installation).
- Engage parking brake; select neutral with standard
transmission or park with automatic transmission.
- Remove keys from ignition and disconnect positive and
negative battery terminals.
- Remove High Air Ram Intake.
- Remove the three 8mm injector line retaining bracket
bolts.
- Loosen the 8mm rear injector line retaining bolt.
- Loosen the six 19mm fuel injector lines at the cylinder
head. Slide the injector line nuts up the lines.
- Slide delivery tubes out ½ inch.
- Loosen the five valve cover bolts. Remove the valve
cover, the valve cover bolts will stay in the
cover.
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove or
loosen the rear injector retaining clamp bolts. The back
hold on clamp is a slot.
- Remove the injector retaining clamp by pulling up and
out.
- Thread one of the valve cover bolts into the top of each
injector in turn and with the bent nose pliers, remove each
injector while prying back slightly on the fuel line on
outside of head going to the injector.
NOTE: It is
very important to take note when removing each injector
whether the copper sealing washer is attached to the
injector or has been left behind in the cylinder head. If
the washer is in the cylinder head it must be removed. A
flat head screw driver that will start into the copper
washer but will not completely pass through it, may be used
to remove the washer.
- Take each of the new injectors in turn and apply a
slight amount of grease to the copper sealing washer. This
will help hold the washers in position. Apply some oil to
the rubber injector sealing rings.
- Each injector has a feed hole. This feed hole must face
toward the fuel injector line when being installed. Press
each injector in turn into the cylinder head while prying
out slightly on the fuel cross over line. Prying down gently
on the top of each injector will help seat the injector into
the cylinder head.
- Install each injector retaining clamp in turn. It may be
necessary to turn the injector slightly to allow the
injector clamp to seat into position.
NOTE: If any
of the hold down clamps do not fit the injectors, the
particular injector is probably 180 degrees off and must be
removed and rotated.
- Once all the injector retaining clamps are in position,
start the 8mm hold down bolts into the cylinder head. DO NOT
TIGHTEN the 8mm hold down bolts at this time.
- Start the injector lines into the cylinder head. Tighten
the injector line nuts hand tight. DO NOT TIGHTEN the 19mm
injector line nuts at this time.
- Tighten the 8mm injector retaining clamp bolts to 89
inch-lbs.
- Tighten the 19mm injector line retaining nuts at this
time.
- Install the valve cover at this time. The valve cover
gasket can be re-used.
- Tighten the 8mm rear injector line retaining bolt.
- Install the three 10mm injector line retaining bracket
bolts.
- Make sure all tools are removed from the engine
compartment and reconnect the battery terminals.
- Turn the ignition key to the start position just enough
to bump the engine and turn the ignition key back to the off
position. You will hear the electric lift pump. Repeat this
process 3-4 times to help bleed the air out of the system.
- Crank engine holding the throttle pedal down about
halfway. If the engine does not start within 30 seconds,
stop cranking. Allow the starter motor to cool down and then
repeat. The engine will usually restart within a few
seconds. Upon start up, the engine will probably run rough
until any remaining air bubbles are evacuated from the
injector lines. Check for leaks.
- Enjoy!
