While installing the injectors we lubed them w/ motor oil to ease installing them.Every injector has a vac. leak.When I went back to parts they informed me that they should be installed dry cause they expand when the get wet by gas and the oil would prevent this and could do damage to the O rings.So when I replace the O rings should I do them dry?

I've heard people use white grease so they come back out easier. I installed mine dry however, I'll just replace them if I tear one on removal. Which I'll probably be doing this week.

Yes, you need to lube them, but you also need to use "fuel injector o-rings" like mentioned before. If you don' lube them, then you run the risk of tearing the o-rings.

I rubbed a little motor oil on my o rings before I installed them, and I don't have any leaks at all. My o rings came with the new injectors.
