Re: fuel injectors

Its not that hard at all. It will be a little akward pulling out the fuel rail for your first time.

Re: fuel injectors

Its not that hard at all. You will need a torx set of sockets and various size strait screwdrivers.

The main part that sucks is paying 20 bux to use 2 small gaskets

Re: fuel injectors

You have to buy a whole kit which has about 12-14 gaskets.... and only use 2.

Plus if your new injectors dont have new orings, you have to put new orings on them as well.

Re: fuel injectors

and are these the seals/gaskets you were talkin about:

i am reading my repair manual and it says that i also need a new o-ring for the cold start tube and a new gasket for the intake plenum, i tried searching for a o-ring for the cold start tube but didnt find anything, is there another name for it?

Re: fuel injectors

First I see you have this listed on a 91 Isuzu? Is that right? And if so, is it MPFI? (or is that a leftover car from something I did?)

Injector looks right...for a camaro. Appears it has orings, but just look at it when you pick it up.

Gaskets, no that is not right... If your a camaro, you will need http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductD...pe=102&PTSet=A

A 91 model does not have a cold start injector. That is for 85-89/90'ish.
