Re: [eng] injector o-ring replacement

["S.Coleman" <deadbolt@mindspring.com>]

When you say "hat" I guess you mean the air shroud type injectors.  These
have two o-rings.  (usually "fat" green or black ones and thinner "silver"
ones)  As the Bentley will say,...soak the o-rings in gasoline for a few
minutes and then push the fats ones on.  Lastly the thin silver ones are
pretty easy to get on the "hats" you referred to.  They do make a "cone"
tool that stretches the fat ones to make installation easier,.....FWIW,...I
have the tool and only used it once since I've owned it......
HTH,

Subject: [eng] injector o-ring replacement


  gonna buy the tool to replace my injector o-rings (hey, it's only $4)
because of weird idiling (high when engine is cold, fine when engine is
warm - ~400 rpm difference). searching the list i only found info on how
to take the injectors out. that won't be a problem, but how do get the
new o-rings on the damn things? the o-rings look like they'd slide up
the injector if it weren't for the "hat" on the bottom. ideas? thanx.
