Yes mate, thanks for your help!

 

[JamesBryan]

Yes mate, thanks for your help!

I forgot to say about the fuel line going into the rail. It's best to check it's in properly as you can't always hear or feel it click in.

 

[Mr Plums]

This thread cheered me up, its taken my headache off, cheers @Davyy

 

[JamesBryan]

Could we have a thread called Davyy's Diary, where he keeps us up to date with things that have gone wrong 😂

 

[oreA]

In Davyy's defence (apart from not braking an injector), when doing mine I had just as much difficulty as he did, it was just fortunate that I had copious amounts of Vaseline to hand to smear around my ring an aid penetration 😂. For reference, any petroleum based jelly would suffice!

He's a damn good sport too :kissingheart::wink:.

 

[JamesBryan]

He used engine oil though, which is what i do and i never really have that much difficulty getting them back in.

Mustn't have used enough :tongueout:

@Davyy thank you for the humour today :smile:

Reading yours and everyones replies just reminds me what CS is all about. Decent fast help but in humorous delivery.

I hope you made a good job of that positive battery terminal problem you had before? Don't want any sparks now you've done this job lol.

Yeah I love CS, was a great help.

The battery problem, I think it was simply that it wasnt pushed down enough like you said. I took it off, cleaned it up and made sure it had 100% contact and I havent had an issue since!

Fair play mate for sticking with it and doing the job

 

[Chris_Beer]

Well that was a disappointment in the end. I was at least hoping for fuel pissing out onto the exhaust or something.

 

[Stay Puft]

Just drove 20miles, smooth as a smooth thing. Put 20L of fuel in it and noted the mileage to make sure fuel consumption is normal too.

Just burst out laughing at work

 

[dervman63]

THATS NOT AN INJECTOR!!! Thats the fuel pressure sensor. Yes you'll need a new one and no, dont start it, it'll spray high pressure fuel every where. Im a mechanic of 35yrs, willing to bet the "injector " crowd have chosen a different profession.

 

[Mr Plums]

Wtf!

Are you chip?

 

[dervman63]

NO, Im not chip, neither am I A chip or the chip.In the picture of the clips holding the injectors to the fuel rail, at the bottom of the picture you can clearly see where the sensor plugs in.
