Injector Removal andInstallation

1. Release fuelpressure tozero.
2. Remove injectortubeassembly withinjectors fromintake
manifold.
3. Remove injectors frominjector tubeassembly.
• Push injector tailpiece.
• Donot pull onthe connector.
4. Install injectors.
• Clean exterior ofinjector tailpiece.
• Use new O-rings.
• Face metal plateofupper insulator toinjector.

CAUTION:
After properly connecting injectorstofuel tube assembly, check
connections forfuel leakage.

5. Assemble injectorstoinjector tubeassembly.
6. Install injector tubeassembly tointake manifold.

Evaporative emissionsystem
• On models equipped withairconditioner,
checks shouldbecarried outwhile theair
conditioner is"OFF".
• On models equipped withautomatic
transaxle, whenchecking idlespeed, ignition
timing andmixture ratio,checks shouldbe
carried outwhile shiftlever isin
"N"
position.
• When measuring
"CO"
percentage, insert
probe morethan40cm (15.7 in)into tailpipe .•
• Turn offheadlamps, heaterblower, rear
defogger.
• Keep frontwheels pointed straight ahead.
• Make thecheck afterthecooling fanhas
stopped.
