How to: install injectors!

Tools needed: 12mm, 10mm, and a clamp


1. Frist clamp down the main fuel hose!



2. Unbolt right side of fuel rail!



3. unbolt FPR side



4. Unbolt fuel rail



5. Pull off the Fuel Rail and the Injectors



6. Unplug the injectors



7. Put injector back > step 6 > step 5 > step 4 > step 3 > step 2 > step 1.

You dont need to do step 2, and 3, but it just makes it a lot easier for me =)

If i remember correctly the greddy injectors had no spot in front for any type of o-rings...Greddy injectors is a solid plastic piece for the front.

I re-used only 4 rear o rings from the stock injector and 4 from the base of the rear... but everything in the front the stock injector stayed with the stock injector... .



correct me if im wrong,did the install myself and just want to confirm...

Looks like 4 gauge to me. I have the same cable thickness in my audio system.

I don't want to dwell on this cable thickness thing. This is a really good thread on injectors. But I still say that's 1/0. That's what I use from the battery to trunk. I use puny 4 gauge from my cap to amp.

500whp, please confirm the truth, so that maybe we will start talking about your thread. I'm not quite ready to change my injectors, but this is a great how to.

Thanks

Just a quick tip. Do not loose those metal U clips. You can not buy them from Mitsu. without purchasing the entire wiring harness for the car.

No doubt, this was a great thread. I suspect most people haven't needed to change plugs yet, but are nearing that time. Why do the pics in these somewhat older how to's go away? The how to pics should always be available.

Well I went ahead and did the injectors w/o pics. Really easy install. Only problem was a little fuel that runs out of the rail once it is unbolted, but other than that it took about 30 min. Really easy, now I just need to get tuned

what i would also add to these instructions is before you start this, take out the rear seat bottom. unbolt the cover to the fuel pump. unplug the wiring harness. start the car and let it run the fuel out of the lines. then plug the harness back in, put the cover back on, and the seat back in. this way you have little to no fuel pressure/fuel itself in the lines when you do the rest of this mod.

But its not worth the time and trouble to do the above because not much fuel comes out anway if you don't do this.
