=>Subject: Engine install - injector problem??
=>
=>
=>While prepping a used engine for install into my car, I decided
=>to pull the
=>injectors, and just use my old ones, mostly because the PO of the
=>engine had
=>chopped all the fuel lines instead of just taking the bolts off  (???)  I
=>didn't have an injector puller, so my friend pulled straight out on what
=>remained of the lines for each injector as I would carefully pry at the
=>joint to the injector.  1st two came out with no problem, but the
=>third and
=>fourth came out without the lower seal, and what I guess is the
=>shroud???
=>some sort of cap that the first two came out with intact.
=>
=>The question:  If I try to put injectors in there without the cap
=>on, will
=>they slide into the ones that remain in the head, or will they (probably)
=>just push the cap into the combustion chamber?  So, should I try
=>to extract
=>these caps somehow?  I was going to try to finish this up today, because
=>Melissa needs my car for Cincy, and have to finish it before I leave
=>Wednesday morning.  I REALLY don't want to have to pull the head
=>if at all
=>possible.
