Subject: KS recall done

  [snipped]

  Popped the hood last night to take a look at the new parts (Jeez my
  engine is dusty!). As mentioned, they replaced the entire fuel rail. At
  first I thought that they hadn't replaced the injectors as they have
  this white crap all over them, but closer inspection shows injectors
  that are too clean to be the same old ones. Anybody have any idea what
  the white stuff is all over the injectors, some sealant of some sort? My
  best guess is that they used some sort of sealant on the
  injector-to-manifold seals and weren't very tidy about it.
