Finding it abit of a fight/struggle to get my injectors I'm on the engine end not rail is there any sort of grease that can be applied to make it slightly easier as Dont want to damage anything (again)

Got any white grease spray? If so, just spray a little bit on your finger and wipe it round the o ring.

Haven't tony only thing I've got left is WD.. Will try spit got them in erlier but ones pissing fuel out.

 

[Dan519]

the one at the engine end won't leak fuel out, that will only cause an air/vacuum leak if it's not sealed.

 

[danh90]

So the only place it will piss out is the fuel rail end? Even if not correctly seated in the engine end?

 

[Dan519]

yes, unless there's damage to the injector. look closer

can if you're quick, but it can also make the O-rings swell and be harder to get in

Maybe but done it quite a few times with no issues so can only speak from my experience.

Don't use a metal based grease, it'll attack the rubber. I always use silicone based grease for o-rings/bushes.

I always use rubber grease like you would on brakes, makes a good seal and pretty sticky, been doing this for a couple of years and never had trouble

Russell Brand once said "There's nothing sexual that can't be improved by spitting". Applies to other things too LOL
