Route the No. 3 fuel tube behind No. 1 and No. 5 fuel tubes and insert No. 3 fuel tube into No. 3 casting socket. Verify No. 3 injector is firmly seated and locked into the correct casting socket.
- Insert No. 5 fuel tube into correct casting socket, followed in order by tubes No. 1, 2, 4, and 6. Ensure electrical connectors on the injectors do not interfere with each other and point towards the center of the intake manifold. Rotate the electrical connectors inboard, if necessary.
- Install upper intake manifold. See INTAKE MANIFOLD under AIR INDUCTION SYSTEMS. Tighten all nuts and bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . Connect negative battery cable.
- Turn ignition switch to ON position for 2 seconds. Turn ignition switch to OFF position for 10 seconds. Turn ignition switch to ON position. Check for fuel leaks. Repair as necessary.
CAUTION:
Verify injectors are firmly seated and locked in their casting sockets, in order to reduce the risk of fire and personal injury. An unlocked or loose injector could work loose from it's casting socket and produce a fuel leak. If an injector is loose, replace the retainer.
