Injector installation

I just got my Xcal2 and my 24# injectors. The dealership can't instal until Monday. It looks pretty simple to install. So I figured I would attempt to instal them myself. Any advice on installation would be appreciated. Thanks

When installing the new injectors lube both O rings with engine oil. Just enough so they slip back in the holes and the fuel rail. Install the injectors into the manifold first. This will keep them clean. With the O rings oiled they will slip into the fuel rail with ease. Start at the rear placing the rail over the injector closest to the firewall and work your way towards the front pushing down like a cutting board. IF they don't slip on then some thing is misaligned. Look carefullu at what you are doing and it will be a breeze.

Thanks for the info. Got them installed along with the Xcal2 performance tune. It only took me about 2.5 hours.
