I'm trying to replace my injectors and the ACV is in the way and I cant remove it. I looked at the manual and all I saw was two bolts. I took off the two bolts but the damn thing is not coming off. I already broke a screw driver trying to pry it off and I don't wanna hit it hard and break anything. Is there another screw holding it down , maybe i miss something? I have the car in the garage and i've been trying to remove it for an hour now.

 

It's held down by 3 bolts. 2 on the bottom, 1 on the upper side.

 

Why Are You Removing The Injectors?

 

The one at the bottom is the bitch...use a 1/4" drive with a 2" extension. Use a flashlight to see where the nut is first so that you can find it easier...

To reinstall, use the same ratchet and extension, but this time use a peice of paper in the socket to hold the nut on.

 

holy **** i hope i didn't break the bolt. i'm taking off the injector so i can have it balance and flow tested and i'm upgrading too.

 

Have You Had Problems With The Injectors Sticking?

 

Yeah, the nut below is hidden. You pretty much a have to remove it by feel. Good luck.

 

Good idea. I use a small piece of duct tape in the socket for those types of jobs.

 

ok got the thing off. I messed up the seal so I have to replace it. I'll call the dealer tomorrow. can' wait to get the rats nest off so I can replace the injectors. I know i'm gonna have a hard time returning those vacuum lines. When I finish at least i know the job is done right. I already saw a few hose that are cut. Maybe that expalins my turbo lagging.

 

Dgnizer, Were You Having Problems With The Injectors?

 

Yup...three nuts, not bolts

Would this help?

Crispy, That Was A Great Write-up Thanks...

 

sorry about that one. I was actually referring to the bolt/crew that the nut was attach to. I don thave any problems with the injector I just want to clean the 850 and upgrade my secondaries

 

What kind of seal was it, paper material or metal?

 

its metal. maybe i should just clip that small part off? i dont think it necessary anyway since i already took off my air pump right.
