lightly lubricate the O-rings on both ends on

the Vortech supplied fuel injectors.

Install the new injectors into the fuel rails with

the terminals facing outward.

injector has been seated properly

into the manifold.

Tighten down the fuel rail assem-

bly with the original bolts and

attach the wiring clips to the injec-

tor terminals.

Connect both ends of the open hose with the
