3. Install the injector(s) (12) to fuel rail with new retainer clip(s) (10).
4. Ensure the injector(s) (12) are aligned by orientating the electrical connector perpendicular to the crankshaft.
5. Install the injector harness.

1. Install the fuel rail with injector(s) to intake manifold.
2. A snap will be heard when the injectors are properly seated.



3. Install the throttle body spacer gasket and throttle body spacer (3) to the intake manifold (4).

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

4. Tighten the bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 12 N·m (106 lb in).

5. Install the new throttle body gasket (2), throttle body (1), and bolts.
6. Tighten the bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the bolts to 12 N·m (106 lb in).

Notice: Use an emery cloth in order to remove rust or burrs from the fuel pipe. Use a radial motion with the fuel pipe end in order to prevent damage to the O-ring sealing surface.

7. Clean the quick-connect fittings.



8. Apply a few drops of clean engine oil to the male ends of the engine fuel rail inlet and outlet pipes.
