These injectors are Accel(Bosch?). They look just like the Buick ones I picked up at the junk yard. Is there a difference? Are the Buick ones essentially like the Ford ones? Thanks for the tip. Any advice on assembling the rail again to avoid leakage? I will start it tomorrow even with the old ones. I am sure they were leaking all along, as I could always smell fuel under boost. Sam |

I believe for gas injectors there are only 2 or 3 styles.... if they look the same then I'm fairly sure the o-rings are the same. Get the surfaces as clean as you can, then lube them with atf or oil or whatever. You shouldn't have to wait for them to get wet with fuel, as they should be wet before installing in the first place. Make sure they go in straight as possible to avoid kinks/bends/etc. Don't start the car, run the pump at max pressure your system will be using first to at least test the top o-rings. |

The Bosch style injectors are about the same everywhere, as they sold injectors to both Ford and GM, as well as quite a few other places. They normally differ only in flow capacity and use the same fittings. I found the injector O-rings seem less likely to rip if you put a little motor oil on them before putting them into place. |
