Tips on changing injectors

[ssms5411]

I'm putting in 36lb injectors in on Sun., any tips or time savers on doing it? I have new injector o-rings. Anything else I would need?

injectors are really easy to change out on these engines, just remember to clean around the injector ports and dont drop anything in there!!! you may want to go with a larger fuel pump to

Put a little motor oil on the new o-rings before you put them in.

lol.. it was faily easy to do my injectors.. but a pain in the *** as well.. it took me about 2 and a half hours to get all them swapped.. . i didnt use motor oil i just used my own spit for the o rings. lol.

make sure you have one of those retractable magnets.. i swear i wish i had one of those. haha. everytime i got a clip loose for the injector.. the damn clip fell on the valve cover im a tight spot and took me like 10 min to dig it out. haha.

Good luck.

Will you be selling your stock injectors?

Just finished changing them out and doing some tuning. Overall, way better than the fmu. Feels like there is more power.I had a few problems putting in the injectors. First was losing one of the injector clips behind the engine(those things really fly off if your not paying attention). The other was using a air tool to screw down the bolts on the fuel rail. It was going good until the last screw, then snap, the bolt snapped off with the screw. It broke off flush with the lower intake. The other bolts kept the fuel line from moving , so later on I have to either try to tap the screw or use the bracket on there and secure it to the upper intake. But overall not too bad. Also did anyone use the o-rings from the 22lb injectors. I used the 36lb o-rings , which seemed smalled than the 22lb injectors. I ran it for about an hour to make sure it wasn't going to leak.
