Fuel Injector Grommets
I need your help again.............please
I am installing 4 new injectors with all new o-rings, lower and upper grommets, and injector air bleeds.
My question is this, I have inserted the top on the injector with the o-ring in the fuel rails, which fits very snuggly, but do the lower and upper rubber grommets set flush against the fuel rails, or are they supposed to go inside the rail itself too?
Thanx
Michael

The upper grommet (not the o-ring) goes against the fuel rail. You will still be able to see it after you push the injector in. When you put the fuel rail back on it will be loose. I thought it should be tight but people let me know that the injector will twist. Seems strange to me. Looks like it should be tight or else the fuel will leak or air will be sucked in.

Tight
Upon installing them and tightening the feul rails down, my grommets, especially on the secondaries are a little scrunched, and there are not loose.
