Injector replacment

I didn't see any injector replacement threads, i would assume partly because of the ease but since i was at it i snapped a few pics.

I started by removing the feedline clip below. i was able to get it off easily just using my fingers. prior to removal place a fair amount of paper towels under the line to catch the spillage.

next; the return line. Again, place paper towels to catch spillage.

next remove the black line bracket/engine cover post. it will get in the way when pulling the fuel rail out.


remove the lines and bolts circled. everything is 10mm except for the main 2 bolts that hold the rail, they are 12mm. the left main rail bolt will require the temporary removal of the return line hose. use paper towels again when pulling it off while getting the bolt out.


remove the injector plugs, use caution when pulling them out as there is a rubber boot on the inside that may fall out.




at this point the entire rail will fairly easily pull out injectors attached. there are 2 black spacers that may fall, in case they do below is what they look like & where they go. when pulling out the fuel rail it will still be full of gas. keep this in mind in regards to the direction of the hard lines. i was able to get the rail out of the engine bay without it draining out.


the last part is to pull the clips and separate the injectors from the rail. the clips can be removed by hand as well as hte injectors. use caution when pulling the injectors as to not cause damage to the orings.



installation steps will come Saturday when i get my stock injectors back. i am sending them to motionlab tuning to get resized to 800s.

You don't have to do a lot of the stuff that you're seeing here. Installed injectors (well watched lol) last night and it was about a 20 minute job with no lines being pulled.

(you can pull the clips off the injectors with them still on the rail and then just push the rail out of the way to install the new ones).

The only steps you don't really have to do is pull the main feed and return lines that is closest to your turbo inlet (1st 2 pics). the other lines & bolts need to be taken off at some point to either give access to a bolt or to allow the rail to lift high enough to dislodge the injectors.

it is a 20 minute job either way and very simple especially after the turbo install last week =)
