How To: Injector Connectors

Hey All,

Kaizenspeed put together this really informative "How-To" on injector connector install and I thought I would share.

Enjoy,

Fastlearner


Changing injectors is really an easy task but when you have to change
connectors all of a sudden people hesitate to buy a set. "Should I get
pigtails or pins?" That's always the next question. Since most guys don't
have and have never used a "W" type crimper, they have to solder on
pigtails.

Crimping your own pins using a "W" type crimper is easy to do, if you have
the right tool. And we're now including a crimper tool with every set of
Injector Dynamics injectors purchased from KStuned.com so you won't ever
have to solder pigtails again.

• Crimping injector pins is easy and there’s no cleaner method.
• Crimping your own pins eliminates the need to solder pigtails.


The crimpers that we include can crimp any “W” type pin including
weatherpack. It’s a great addition to anyone’s toolbox. Below you’ll find
a step-by-step tutorial on how to crimp injector pins using our supplied
crimper.

The link to the original source is:
http://www.kstuned.com/articles/how-...ctor-pins.html




Step 1: Cut off your OE injector connector.


Step 2: Slide on the seals.
* Make sure the small end of the seal faces the injector pin (see picture).


Step 3: Strip the end of the wire back.

Step 4: Insert the wire into the pin and crimp the pin around the wire as
shown
*Make sure the open end of the pin faces the “W” part of the crimper (see
picture)




Step 5: Slide the seal down into the end of the pin and crimp the pin
around the seal using the round part of the crimper (see picture)


Step 6: Now just plug the pin into the back of the injector connector and
you're done!
*See picture for how the crimped pin should look.


Step 7: Go faster and idle better than your friends that have big, stupid
injectors.
