Real Time Help Needed- Dw950 Injectors

[g35me]

having trouble with the DW950 injectors, mine dont have a slot cut in the body of the injector where the stock tin retaining clip is meant to slide into like on the stock injectors. is this right? otherwise the only thing holding them in place would be the 5 fuel rail bolts.

if you read step 13 of this diy it says most aftermarket injectors dont use the slide clips

So - what injectors did you end up with in the car this morning?

[g35me]

DW950, it worked. Doing fuel pumps tonight.

[Snowman]

Well then I hope they really are the direct drop in versions

At least you don't have kids @ school issues tomorrow should you run into trouble

I had to machine up a sleeve for each injector so it wouldn't slide up and down (and possibly spitting itself out of the hole in the manifold)

Oh...have fun "clicking" the fuel pump assembly back into place inside the fuel tank....did you buy HKS pumps??

in the end i had no troubles with the DW injectors, pretty easy job really. Changing the fuel pumps was an absolute pain in the ass job that i wouldnt care to repeat again and they were direct fit HKS.

LOL - I'll definitely let Chris do it then given I also have a roll cage to deal with back there.
