Injector mounting in manifold.

[Ben Swann]

Jim,

I understand what you are saying, that the fuel may miss the number one
runner.  Has anyone confirmed this, or is it just speculation.  After
looking at this, it appears that the fuel would reach the number one just
fine, as the injector would be in position before that, but I wouldn't argue
with some BTDT.
