1600cc Install into LIM???
 

Guys,

How do you install the Ford 1600cc injectors into a 1988 Turbo II??

The yellow body of the injector hits the diffuser in the LIM. How do you get around this. I was told that this was pretty much drop in.

I was also refered to BDC pictures but trying to mimic his it seems like mine will still not fit nicely like the stock ones did.

Do I trim the the yellow lip? Do I cut out the orange grommet??

I already cut out the green o-ring and tried to install the stock "new" grommets but like I said no go:(

Any help or pictures will be greatly appreciated since I have been staring at these for two weeks.

Thanks
Ian Skacel

On my 1600s, I removed the entire bottom pintle cap and o-ring, and replaced it with a generic Bosch one. Then the standard rx7 grommet fits.

How did you remove the bottom pintle cap. Looks permanent to me??

thanks for all the help

you can leave the bottom part alone, trim the top and put spacers on the rail. I did it this way and no leaks. It looks kinda funny though because you can see the o-ring on the bottom of the injectors, people will do double takes ;)
