FUEL INJECTOR AND FUEL TUBE
7. Remove the fuel injector from the fuel tube using the followingsteps.
a. Spread open and remove the clip.
b. Remove the fuel injector from the fuel tube by pulling straight out.
CAUTION:
• Be careful with remaining fuel that may leak out from fueltube.
• Do not damage injector nozzles during removal.
• Do not bump or drop fuel injectors.
• Do not disassemble fuel injectors.
8. Remove the fuel damper from each fuel tube.
INSTALLATION
1. Install the fuel damper to each fuel tube using the following steps.
a. Apply engine oil to the new O-ring and set it into the cup of the fuel tube.
CAUTION:
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Never wear gloves.
• Lubricate new O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating part are free of for-eign material.
• When installing O-ring, do not scratch it with tool or fin-
gernails.
• Do not twist or stretch the O-ring.
b. Make sure that the backup spacer is in the O-ring connecting surface of the fuel damper.
NOTE:
The backup spacer is part of the fuel damper assembly.
c. Insert the fuel damper until it seats on the fuel tube. CAUTION:
• Insert straight, making sure that the axis is lined up.
• Do not pressure-fit with excessive force.
d. Install the cap, and then tighten the bolts evenly. • After tightening the bolts, make sure that there is no gap between the cap and fuel tube.
2. Install new O-rings to the fuel injector paying attention to the items below. CAUTION:

• Lubricate new O-ring with new engine oil.
• Do not clean O-ring with solvent.
• Make sure that O-ring and its mating
part are free of foreign material.
• When installing O-ring, be careful not to scratch it with tool or fingernails. Also be careful not to
twist or stretch O-ring.
• If O-ring was stretched while it was being att ached, do not insert it quickly into fuel tube.
• Insert O-ring straight into fuel tube. Do not angle or twist it.
3. Install the fuel injector to the fuel tube using the following steps.
a. Insert new clip into clip mounting groove on the fuel injector. • Insert clip so that lug ″A ″ of fuel injector matches notch ″A ″ of
the clip.
CAUTION:
• Do not reuse clip. Replace it with a new one.
• Do not allow the clip to interf ere with the O-ring. If inter-
ference occurs, replace the O-ring.
b. Insert the fuel injector into the fuel tube with the clip attached. • Insert it while matching it to the axial center.
• Insert fuel injector so that lug ″B ″ of fuel tube matches notch
″ B ″ of the clip.
• Make sure that the fuel tube flange is securely seated in the flange fixing groove on the clip.
c. Make sure that installation is complete by checking that the fuel injector does not rotate or come off.
• Make sure that the protrusions of the fuel injectors are alignedwith the cutouts of the clips after installation.
4. Install the fuel tube and fuel injector assembly to the intake manifold. CAUTION:
Do not let the tip of the injector nozz le come in contact with other parts.
• Tighten fuel tube assembly bolts ″a ″ to ″b ″ in illustration in two
steps.
5. Install the fuel hose assembly. • Insert connectors straight, making su re that the axis is lined up with fuel tube side to prevent O-ring from
being damaged.
• Tighten bolts evenly in several steps.
• Make sure that there is no gap between the flange and fuel tube after tightening the bolts.
CAUTION:
• Handle O-ring with bare hands. Do not wear gloves.
• Lubricate O-ring with new engine oil.
