Question Changing Injectors, Any Tips?

Just like the title says, I am upgrading my stockers to SVO 30#ers. Any special advice or tips? Any special tools needed? Thanks! Ben

Lube the orings with oil

Also, you may need to pick up a fuel disconnect tool - $3 at Autozone.

It is a easy swap. Few tips, disconnect the wire harness at the 4 corners, us a long screwdriver to unclip. Removing the connectors for the rear injectors is a pain, but if you disconnect front 6 1st and then pull rail up and forward you will be able to disconnect the rear injtcs. Be cautious orings will probaly stick up in the rail use a small pick to pull them out. When reinstalling use a small bit of vasloline onthe orings. Do not need to disconnect main fuel supply line.

You might want to go with a bigger injector for further mods down the road. 30#,s seem a little small if you have bigger plans. Going to have to tune for them anyway. Save yourself some time and money.
