Got the backend back together yesterday:
Today it's the rear brake caliper going back on with new HEL brake line, then a brake bleed and if I have some extra time I'll finish up all the hardware bits and pieces on the front and rear and then turn to the engine.
The fuel injectors are coming out and getting ultrasonically cleaned and the rest of the system's getting a flush.
The odds and ends went together well. Even the brakes were quick to bleed, so with the wheels back on and the new brake lines installed I turned to the fuel injection.
The injectors highlighted in yellow above are press fit in and just pull out of the throttle body and the fuel rail behind.
 |
| The fuel rail is held in by clips and two bolts holding it in place relative to the throttle body. |
 |
| The whole thing just pops out when you've undone the two bolts. |
 |
| With the fuel injectors so easy to remove, I'll be quicker at cleaning them in the future. |
 |
| Ultrasonic cleaners aren't expensive and do a great job on fuel injectors. |
 |
| Cleaning doesn't take long if you remove the rail and injectors. |
 |
| Ultrasonic cleaning gets into the small places. |
 |
| The injectors press fit back into the throttle body with a beefy o-ring to seal them. |
 |
| My fuel-line replacements for unavailable replacement rubber hoses for the vacuum driven idle control system (on the right) scored a two out of three. The far one on the left got kinked, so I cut back the hose and I'll see how it does shortened. If that doesn't work I'll start looking for stronger walled alternatives. |
