    Tips on changing Fuel Injectors?

    So I purchased new Venom Fuel Injectors because mine are all leaky and clogged up.

    I have the Haynes & Chiltons manuals and it doesn't look too tough. If anyone has any good tips please let me know!

    Thanks.

    Its easier than you think. Just make sure you don't over torque the fuel rail nuts, you can brake the bolts verry easy. Trust me I know from experience.

    True dat... I snapped one too, hehe

    They are very easy to do. Just relieve the fuel pressure (although I never did -- I just pulled the fuel pump fuse and cranked it a few times. Not sure if it did any good or not, but oh well), take off the 4 nuts, unplug the wires (don't lose the little metal clips -- they will come flying off VEERRRYYYY easy, so take them off sllloooooowwwwllllyyy, and only far enough to get the wire off), then pull straight up and viola!

    Thanks for the tips guys. Job went great and only took about 2 hours. The old ones had a whole lot of build up so now it does feel as though I have a little better flow.
