So decided to get stuck in and do a swap of my injectors for some ID850's. I didn't find this guide until after the fact unfortunately. Now I'm nervous that I didn't do it correctly.
These are the injectors and as you can see they are very different from the OEM ones. Everything indicates that they are correct though. I wonder what impact there will be with the injector now that it isn't as long. The worry I have is that I installed the injectors as they are shown, there are like two seals on the bottom. I removed the oem injectors also as they are shown. Was I supposed to remove a gasket or something from the head that should have been on the old injector? When I fitted the fuel rail it sat up approx 3mm I guess. I just bolted it down and it fit snuggly. I figured that this was just to ensure a tight seal. Now I'm not so sure. Can anyone advise? Btw. The car starts/idles and runs fine. Cheers. [IMG]http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/n...pse1c66074.jpg[/IMG] |

At least everything is easier the second time around. Also, thanks for the link to Dezoris's guide. Would have made some of the process easier. |
Is there an official DIY for this, I don't plan on doing this yet but knowing where I can reference back to would help:)
I know I can read off what @ecko04 said, but I'm a lot more of a visual person. I been Googling and searching around the forums and I haven't seen a video or a DIY thread about this. Did I miss anything? |

Are there any consumables that I should purchase before installing DW injectors?
|
Can someone that has swapped taller injectors like IDs please help me understand what exactly I am going to be spacing? A spacer will seat between the intake manifold and the rubber gasket on the injector tip? Or am I supposed to use a spacer and longer bolt to space the fuel rail to sit higher?
