Got a little more done today.  Nice to be actually reassembling something.  Today it was the engine.  As you may recall I had stripped the TB, intake, and lower plenum so I could get at the starter to replace the contacts.

Put the coolant pipe back in place and was ready to tackle the injector/fuel rail seals.  Had to pull the fuel rail assembly - easy as pie - 4 nuts.

Complete, as it came off the engine...


Fuel rail assembly removed


Fuel rail assembly (upsidedown)


Injector in the rail - these pull straight out pretty easily.


Rail with the injector removed.


Here's an injector removed from the rail.  The grommet and insulator was pretty brittle.  The o-ring was still pliable, but a couple of injectors came out very easily.  There was a little leaking that predicated this teardown.


The injector with the old parts removed.  From the left is the o-ring, the insulator, and the grommet.


Here's a side by side with the new part - notice how in the last pic that the grommet was all deformed.
