Title: removing injectors Post by: Ed on July 02, 2003, 04:52:53 AM Hi,
this is a vaguely FE?C related question... Im trying to remove injectors from a fuel rail (commodore) do I just remove the clip and pull them out or is there a trick?? They seem stuck on the O ring??.. I dont want to break them. any help appreciated.. Cheers Ed Title: Re: removing injectors Post by: Chuck on July 02, 2003, 06:19:22 AM Hi Ed
To remove the injectors, slide the retaining clip back and away and then they should come out. Sometimes they get a little stuck and need some coaxing. You can "gently" pry them out but be careful not to damage the casing. When reinstalling them, add a little motor oil to the o-ring to assist them easing back into the fuel rail. If you do break or damage the injector o-ring, they are mostly readily available from GMH/parts stores etc...

I know the car that you are talking about, its the one that usually parks in Balmain Road. It's just behind the Coles which means that I get to see it each time I'm out shopping. If it was mine it would probably be about six inches lower ;D ;D ;D Cheers Chuck |
