- Carefully disconnect the electrical connector from each fuel injector.
- Remove the bolts securing the fuel rail to the intake manifold.
- Gently lift the fuel rail assembly away from the engine.
- Remove the retaining clips and pull the old injectors from the fuel rail.
- Lightly lubricate the new injector o-rings with clean engine oil before installation.
- Press the new injectors firmly into the fuel rail until they seat correctly and install the retaining clips.
- Reinstall the fuel rail assembly and tighten the bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque.
- Reconnect the electrical connectors to each injector.
- Reconnect the battery terminal, turn the key to the 'on' position to prime the system, and thoroughly check for any fuel leaks before starting the engine.
Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I confirm this injector fits my engine?
Start by matching the part number from your old injector to the numbers listed in our cross-reference table. Additionally, verify your engine model, year, and ECM type (e.g., MEFI 6 for Indmar, ECM 555 for MerCruiser) against our compatibility charts. This injector is the black-body, EV-14 style; visual confirmation is crucial.
What are the symptoms of a bad fuel injector?
Common signs include a rough idle, engine misfires, difficulty starting, decreased fuel economy, increased emissions, or the smell of raw fuel. A check engine light with codes related to the fuel system or specific cylinders can also indicate a failing injector.
Should I replace all my fuel injectors at once?
While not strictly necessary, it is highly recommended. These injectors are remanufactured and flow-matched to ensure each cylinder receives an equal amount of fuel. Replacing all at once provides balanced engine performance and prevents future issues from other aging injectors.
What is the difference between a 3-BAR and 4-BAR injector?
BAR is a unit of pressure. This is a 4-BAR injector designed for specific fuel systems. While its flow rate is measured at a 3-BAR standard (272cc), it operates at 4 BAR. Using the wrong pressure-rated injector will result in incorrect fueling and poor engine performance. Always use the injector specified for your engine's fuel system.
