Thanks for taking the time to create a howto video on changing injectors.
Just wondering what qualifies you on the advice/recommendations you make? Are you an automotive engineer? You have to be careful on this forum; a lot of people will listen to any old rubbish and take it as gospel. |

Don't take any of it as gospel. Take the info and make up your own mind. But based on what we saw, I feel the recommendations are good common sense advice until proven otherwise. Feel free to offer alternate opinions. I work in a technical field, have a lot of exposure enough to have some opinions but, that's where it ends. This is to start a discussion based on some relevant info and build on it. Just want to say its not about right or wrong for me, just want to provide actual content on the topic not just BS. Bottom line I want Toyota eng, to specify normal operating perimeters that will be gospel to me.

Thanks @Dezoris for another great video with tons of useful information. Hopefully the Toyota rep gets back to you somewhat quickly.
I wonder about the stratified injectors, if you don't know the number of yours could you just order 4 injectors with the same stratified part #? or would that be a bad idea? |

So until someone can provide a answer as to the mechanical differences, I would keep them the same. My old Insight had keyed spark plugs same situation as this car. You had to pull them to find the number to order the correct ones. Annoying.

I hadn't noticed any variance in the shafts of the injectors I pulled, good catch. I would like to know how many of the failed seal cases have that chamfer on the backside of the seal groove...I can't say I like it I haven't noticed that on the Audi Hardware and I'll have another look at my VK56 DI injector tonight...don't recall it there either. |

@Dezoris: Excellent work. Thanks! Watched it during lunch and had to laugh at how much of a rat's nest we have to deal with to access these parts. Seeing the actual seal installation was great, as this is easily the biggest place of concern I have with this engine.
Thanks for the SST tool part number as well. The YouTube comments were equally entertaining, especially one from the "F-bomb user" who was amazingly offended by Turbo's use of the word. Welcome to Mechanicsville, kiddo. The language and entertainment value alone made it worth watching. |
