Those with FIC injectors
since they are shorter, what if anything did you do different when installing?
There is 2 grooves on the top, which did you use for the clip? Just verifying what I did, I think all is good, but don't know yet

Re: Those with FIC injectors
Have you started that beast yet ? The set I had only had one grove for the clip. What set did you end up with?

Re: Those with FIC injectors
Here's a few pics from last year when I did the FIC injectors. The four slots that hold the rail down to the IH's had to be oblonged upward about 3/8".
out with the old...    in with the new...

Re: Those with FIC injectors
Note was not in the box with mine, but then, there is a LONG Story that goes along with my injectors.

Re: Those with FIC injectors
okay.. did injectors per instructions
drove car 2 maybe 3 miles.. car runs like **** and is loading up.. Had an oil issue I think is resolved puled plenum to install my OEM injectors, checked them first I have 3 more bad ones emailed FIC and Jon called me.. I checked the injectors for leaks, I have one leaking.. he is sending me a replacement.. I also elongated the holes in the Fuel rail bracket. since I am using later model IH I am wondering if the injectors are not seating all the way and i am getting a vacuum leak.. Went through this last year.. what a pain..

Re: Those with FIC injectors
Jeff remind me again why do we think so highly of our cars again,,,,,,,,funny thing all was along I thought my cars were for driving.
So your saying three of the new or old are bad ? Is just one leaking ? Do you have one or two style injectors , forgot. |
