Injector Removal
I need to replace the injectors in my 1990 200 (MC engine) this
weekend. BTW, Linda @ Carlsen has the injectors for $43 each.
Great price compared to the $97/ea. quotes I got locally....
After checking the Bentley, as usual, I find it's d**m little help. My
unanswered question is - HOW do you remove the fuel injectors?
The one and only sentence I can find tin the Bentley is in section
20.17, wherein it sayeth: "Pull injectors (in direction of arrow) out of
their inserts with fuel lines left attached." [part of checking fuel
injector sequence...]
I cannot believe I'm interpreting this correctly and that all one needs
to do is give them a pull. In my 280ZX, each injector has a
retaining base with two screws - and it seems like there should be
SOMEthing holding the Audi injectors in place.
So - what's the removal procedure? What needs to come off befoer
the injectors can be removed? Anything to watch out for, such as
small O-rings which can fall inside the manifold? I already figured
out that kinking the fuel lines is a no-no...
TIA, list-compadres.
