clean injectors
« on: June 24, 2020, 01:05:54 PM »
 greets,
  I bought a 04 Stone that was sitting for about 5 yrs.  of course the tank had crud gas.
I prefer carbs, I actually like the cough and sputter. weird. :huh:
  And have reworked with HD carbs, Honda sohc , but EFI is new to me.
how do I remove the injectors with out gorilla moves ?
I can find many a youtube that shows cleaning injectors, but not one that addresses specifically removing them..

thank you....

Easy/peasy-- A long 1/4" extension & torx /allen, which ever can't remember. Work from opposite side, cause bolt for block is on the inside. If you need more play, there is screws top & bottom of rails into each throttle body.
Injectors sit in a block held on by 2 screws. Unhook hoses of course. Have Fun!!

 I see no screws/nuts of any kind.  I removed the clip for the elect., then a C clip that held a split ring.  But nothing wants to move.  Then the injector should pull right out.? ?

 I now see the 2 torx screws.  And would like to curse the fine Italian engineer who designed that way to connect injectors.     :whip2:
Thanks.....

If you take the individual TB screws out off the rails and loosen the intake & airbox clamps, you can rotate them for ease of lining up to get strait on the torx.

Being a bit lazy and concerned I may end up turning a simple little project into a big job.......I would run some Sea Foam or Techron FI cleaner before doing it the manual way. Cheap and easy to do.  :grin:
