Alsandr Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 I've got a couple questions that (I hope) can be answered fairly quickly: 1: Does the o-ring to replace the one in the high pressure fuel line come with a throttle body rebuild kit? If so, which is it? If not, where can I get one? 2: I don't have much experience with fuel systems and need to replace the o-rings on my injectors, how do I do that? Do I need to take the entire throttle body off or can I do it with it still connected? As much detail as possible is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

nickireson Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 you can do it without taking the whole thing off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickireson Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 y not do a full rebuild on it though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alsandr Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Honestly, I don't have anywhere to do one. I don't have anything to clean the parts with and don't have enough time between school and work to get it done and I need to drive this car. One of these days I might buy a second car to use as a DD, but for now I'm stuck with this one. I got all the leaks fixed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89PalermoSHP Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 the o-ring for the fuel hose is not included in the rebuild kit but is still available from the dealer. maybe Dad has them or could get some in stock for you. changing the seals on the injectors is a breeze, just be very careful not to strip out the two screws. lay a rag under the fuel hose when you take it off to catch the small amount of gas that will spill(and put out any cigs while doing this ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I snapped it in half trying to take it off, that thing was OLD. I also got the injector o-rings changed, it was much easier than I expected. Although now my secondary injector isn't firing...

Alsandr Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 in that case...http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=98252I know. I'm going to try cleaning the clip connections better first and see if that will help. I did a real quick job on it last night, so maybe a better one will get it to work.

SpEeD147 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 yeah, just take the fuel rail off (on top of injectors) and you can get the injectors out and replace the o-rings as well as the rings that seal between the injector and throttle body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
