1990 ZR1 fuel rail "O" rings
 

I am replacing the injectors on my 1990 ZR1 and would like to know if anyone has replaced the primary injector "O" rinds that are down iside of the fuel rail? Or if this a critical item to replace?

Thanks

I'm guessing you mean the o-rings inside the injector housings. Take your fingers and lightly go over them and feel for any nicks in the rubber. If all is well, put a little silicone grease on them and forget about it.

OK, thanks for the information. Now, if their are any bad ones, any suggestions on where to get them?

GM has them. Pricey though.

Yup, $25.00 a ring.

Let me know if you need any. I've got some for less than that.

OK, thanks. I'll know tomorrow.

tony , I will try to get to the napa store today and get back to you . could be a little tough as it snowed 16 inches last night here in mammoth.. have to shovel my way out . are the o rings you need only for the primary in the housings or do you need them all . ie the bottem and top for the secondary and top for the primary.? if you need these I have alot of extras . please pm me your mailing address and i will give you alittle xmas present. jeff is right though you can reuse the ones in the housings. what i did on the ones i reused is take a shop rag and twist it up ( remember the rat tail we used to snapp each other with in high school)soak the small tail end up and run it through the inj hole to clean off any dirt . I only had to replace 2 . To remove them i used a Ice pick . and very carefully pull it out . remember alluminum is vey soft . hope this helps Happy holidays

Yes, the ones I need are in the housing, the large ones that go around the body of the injector.

Thanks again

I dont know if they are the same or not but I have a pack (Im pretty sure) of new Felpro L98 injector Orings. If anyone knows if they will work I will send them off to you tony, gratis

Re: 1990 ZR1 fuel rail "O" rings
 

Thank you very much. If these are the large ones, 7/8"OD, 5/32"thick, 5/8" ID that would be them. I'll do some checking and get back to you.

Not to seal this thread, but I need a couple of the orange rectangular electrical washers that attach to the injectors. Any place to purchase these???

Bob;

I will ask my son, he works at a fuel injection shop. He has been looking for some of the "O" rings I need with partial success. Will have to wait until Monday.

See if you can find a shop that fixes farm equipment. There is a shop in Sebring that repairs hydrolic truck/farm equipmenr and they have a large supply of o-rings and one just takes your original down and the guy hunts through a few bins and comes back with the right one. Check the phone book in your area.

Tyler;

Thanks for the information. I ended up at a Hydraulic Contrlos out fit and they ordered me the correct ones. Viton and .43cents a piece.
