88 Coupe 4.9 Swap Thread (Page 21/69)

I don't know what to tell you exactly. Just line up the injectors with the holes in the intake manifold and press the rail down. Then add the bolts and torque to spec. There is no trick to it really. For me its always gone in quite a bit easier then it comes out. Almost too easy. I replaced my o-rings during the rebuild so I never had the joy of working with old ones. Hope this is somewhat helpful Joe.

EDIT: Page 6 is mine!!!
Your thread is already 2 pages longer then mine. The funny thing is I've been working on mine for almost 2 years.

install as one part - add some 3 in 1 oil to the o-rings to aid in them going into the holes (on both the manifold and fuel rail). Just set the rail on top of the manifold, line up the injectors and press down.

Well one opened up, one refused. I am soaking the two ends with some PB blaster to see if it will free it up.

Joe,
I thought you took this out of a running driving car.

When life gives you lemons, thank them for the Fiero.

No, I purchase the 91 Deville with a 85K 93 engine, and transmission. The 93 was bolted in the 91. Wiring was started. They quit working on it when the 91's round transmission connecrtor would not plug into the 4T60E. She sat dormant for 6-8 months before I purchased it in early April.

Water, hot is better - even better if the cleaner you bought has a heater. There is a special soap to use in the cleaner, andy local place that sells/services these should have it.

NEVER use anything that is flamable in an utrasonic cleaner.

Well, I just mod-i-fied your idea a bit. But thanks
Joe

I just got my injector kit in the mail from Mr Injector, $24.00 more in the kitty.

My Untrasonic cleaner will be here Tuesday. I am gonna run them all threw a bit before I put them back togeather. I have sprayed PB blaster in the top and bottom holes of all eight injectors. Mr Injector's recommendation to use WD 40 or something to prevent and rust. I figured it wouldn' hurt to use the 'Blaster'

It looks like I am always about three steps behind you Joe. I am planning to turn the key on my 4.9 for the first time tomorrow.

Wish me luck.
