I remembered someone asking how the injectors seals look like.

There are three sets here.
The first one is the seals that are ON, EACH injectors.

The injector kit comes with those in the photo below. Assuming that you have that kind of an injector. There are FIVE items in the kit.

Next, is the seal that is used to properly seat the injectors to the intake manifold.

Its called the injector seal. It can be blue (as in photo) or can come in green.

The third is the seal that is placed INSIDE the fuel-rail, and acts as a spacer between the injectors and the rail.

Its called the spacer-seal.

Its usually black in colour and looks 'pressed' with a lining in the middle. You'll know it when you see it.

Normally, when you change these injectors, you are advised to change all five of them, and not just the leaking ones, cos, it makes common sense to do so. The others are prolly just waiting the right time to fail as well.

Sure thing, Weezy.

When i looked into Vadis, the kinds of special tools needed to change the injectors seals were kinda ridiculous. Why do you need SO many 'special tools' to begin with?

Anyway.

Cheers.

I bought Vadis from a US guy on E bay but the imfo for my 940 is very very limited
