New Injectors

Hay all I am putting my TPI back together and was wondering if there is a process to putting the injectors back in the fuel rail. I have had them flow matched and cleaned with new O rings. Do I need to lube them or just press them in?


Thanks

Don't just press them in, you could damage the O-rings. Silicone spray works nicely. I have even wiped a little Windex on the O-rings to make them slide in.

Supposta lube the o-rings with clean motor oil.

Windex actually contains agents which will dry out rubber so I would go with the clean motor oil method. That is what i have used and i works great for me.
