    Why? So i learn... The how2 section only showing 2 injector related and not what i need...

    Anyone advice?? So i know what to be careful of??

    The bottom of 3 and 4 are flooded of diesel i think, it was so dirty before i cleaned it up! Now diesel only showing there. What method is best of cleaning the area before refitting?? Kinda hard to clean with so little space to do it!!

    A plug of some sort if u can point to sn object to prevent them holes getting junk entering is what i mean to clean it up :-)

    Don't plug it, clean it out, get a thin wire brush down if you can, don't worry about stuff falling in, once finished a bit of hose taped to your vac will suck all the crap out before refitting...

    I really want a cutting tool and my own timing kit, just can't afford just yet

    Is the seals "rubber" or "copper washers"?
