Diy Injector Install

[ahh 33 s2]

hey all, trying to install my new injectors, and fuel rail, never done it before but having a crack none the less,

its just not looking right, they are Xspurt 1000s and some knock off rail, (not what i asked for but what i got). and i also got speed flow port adaptors,

so they way i have tried it is

rail > speedflow adaptor > injector > and then stock O ring into the manifold,

here are some pics,

its in this last picture that im a bit worried, just doesnt seem right,

any help is welcome,

thanks

It looks like the injector isnt seating right down in the hole, is the spacer too long?

[ahh 33 s2]

yeh not to sure aye, that what i was thinking aswell, i dont understand why i got an inject spacer and a rail spacer, but with out both the inject isnt even close to sitting right,

[scotty nm35]

Measure how far you want the injector to drop, then cut the same amount off the spacer. I guess you need the injector to be sitting right down or the blue spacers may pop off right?

Good choice on the Xspurts. I have the 1000's now, running eflex and it idles perfectly.

yeh if i lower the injector the i wont have a good fit in the spacer, ill try sort it out tomorrow,

glad to hear some good feed back on them, i was told they are very similar to the ID's when i baught them, although, i wish it was a straight forward

looks like you got 2 o rings there

[ahh 33 s2]

looks like you got 2 o rings there

yeh pal, there is, but ones on the injector it self and on is in the manifold, but i firstly thought that i would take the one out of the manifold, nbit the injector then would move around,

as it sits now, its firmly in place, but i no it not right,

[Pal]

hmm, ill go have a look at my 26 and see if there is one or two o rings

[Pal]

mine only has 1 but its stock

It looks like you need to take off the original o ring that sits in the plenum and cut / grind off piece of the spacer where the allen bolt passes thru so the entire rail will now move down and hold the inj firmly in place using only the o ring on the inj

when i changed the injectors on my 25 i noticed that the injector does not sit firmly against the factory O ring in the manifold but it all seals fine.

Try fitting the injector without the rail to see where it goes into naturally

on my new fuel rail for use with dekka injectors, I swear have a machined alloy spacer of sorts for each injector, same style of rail as this...??

I'll go and check it out...

[75coupe]

took some photos of my new dekka injectors that came with spacers to bridge the slight gap Im guessin, its only a guess cause I havnt actually test fitted mine as yet...

[75coupe]

actually forget what Ive said the spacers look like I wont even need them, their for a different fitting of sorts...

[heslo]

Take off the standard o rings but leave the o ring on the injector. It will then fit in, just be careful guiding them in, I had issues getting my ID1000s in the first time

[ahh 33 s2]

yep thats what i ended up doing heslo, got them all in today and they feel snugand fingers crossed no leaks,

with it idling spray some carb cleaner around the orings at the bottom and see if he idle changes, just to make sure they are not leaking.
