I would if it was someone else. Then loosen the bolts holding it to the block See method 2 for location on those bolts. I did not have to. It involves the removal of the injector in order to clean it with an appropriate solution. So, I know it is possible. If that is what happened, that makes Cobb not look like complete fucking idiots.
The injector removal tool is simple but brilliant, I'm glad that was included. Rough idling, starting issues, or increased fuel consumption may signal a bad injector. I took 2 pictures to show you where all of the bolts are but the right most bolt is hidden behind the runner and I put a red circle where it should be relative to the photo. When the fuel injector gets clogged, it forms carbon deposits that reduce the flow of fuel and disrupt the spray pattern of the fuel injection. What I found is that some people pull the rail with the crows feet already removed so they don't have to risk trying to pull the injectors out of the head.
There are 2 bolts that hold the manifold to the fuel rail bracket. I had to find out the hard way, lol. It works like a spray nozzle of a pressure washer. I used high-temp loctite on the studs. Fuel Rail Bracket: 2 10mm bolts Fuel Rail: 5 10mm bolts Attached to Block 4 T40 Torx bolts 2 10mm bolts Attached to Fuel Line The yellow dot indicate the vacuum hose to the fuel rail. No matter the situation, Advance Auto Parts has the Fuel Injector product you desperately need.
That black box that fits on top of the intake manifold, there is a nipple on it that sits in a hole on the intake manifold. But, maybe not, I dunno, it just kinda seems like it. As far as actually pulling the injectors out is there anything else I need to know. Also, the fuel line that connects to the fuel rail needs to be pulled to the right a little bit to be able to clear. I believe both of them are 8mm.
With your way, it seems like you just leave the belt tight and manhandle the pump. Intake Manifold, Fuel Rail, Injector Removal Tools needed: Ratchets Extensions Swivels Pliers Sockets: 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 14mm T40 Torx bit First off, I have a front mount, which really in not any different than a top mount for this job. Your ratchet should just clear the radiator. Use a torque wrench that is known calibrated properly and all should be right with the install. Anyways, long story short I have to replace an injector so this is super helpful how to. The belt is presumably pretty tight. However, the intake valves look like the day they were installed in the head.
And finally there is a hose with a yellow clip that needs to be removed which in in the yellow circle. Do you think Cobb forgot to torque them, or did they vibrate loose? I'm going to have to clean that hole, I figure on using my Dremel tool with the cloth polishing wheel. There are 2 hose clamps and a few 10mm bolts. When looking at the car the Mani has an area for something to plug into it on the left side. I have done it several times and I still forget.
This time I removed the belt just from the top pully and everything stayed in place, so all I had to do was have someone put it back on while I was underneath and it took less then a minute since the rest of the belt was still in place. There is 1 wiring harness attached that needs to be valve control module that needs to be removed as well To remove the one with the red clip, push down on the read clip and pull up on the vacuum hose. Injector seals and O-rings can also fail, causing fuel leaks near the top of your engine. There are multi-injections, where there is one injector per cylinder, as well as single point injection, where there is one injector for all the cylinders. Next you will need to remove the power steering pump. But now that i got my PnP Mani back, and am getting it back on I have a questions.
Some may just fall out easily, some may be really caked up and take some work to pull. This will save you some time. It is pretty straight forward. For this, you will first need to remove the serpentine belt via the tensioner pulley with a 14mm. Would anyone happen to know the part number or where i can get one? Can't wait to see what your talking about! Also, there are two hoses that need to be removed in the picture the blue circle is where the red clip is and the blue arrow shows where the blue clip should be relative to the picture.
I know that if you were my girl, I'd be there to help. Either pull harder or loosen the bolt in step 7 a little more. There is no right or wrong way to remove it, just preference. My car will be down for the week, I'll have to round up the crows foot this week. Also, the bottom bolt on the power steering pump is a bitch to get at if you're not using the right tool combination.
A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely idiot proof is to underestimate the ingenuity of a complete idiot. With your way, it seems like you just leave the belt tight and manhandle the pump. Hi Jess, so I understand your boyfriend is leaving you to tackle this job yourself. The red dots indicate 5 10mm bolts that hold the rail to the block. Or you may just be struggling to keep it highway-approved.
