[Vwdiesel] Injector Seals

[Dave Cook]

Well, I ran out of time tonight.  I think all I have to do now is grab some fresh seals to be safe, install the injectors and lines, bolt the axles to the transmission, put on the wheels, fill the antifreeze and fire it up!

So really just a few things to check off the list.  Probably won't get to do it tomorrow, but I might be able to take off a few hours Tuesday morning to try it out.

Well, all the other injectors are also loose so I popped them out to take a quick look.  All were ok, but I kinda thought the seals needed to be new every time they were installed.  Good thing I checked, though, as number 4 didn't have a seal in there at all!
