Changing injectors on a 3.2

[Nick Triesch]

I removed the injectors on the passenger side of my motor before and it was not hard. But on the driver’s side it is a different story. In the area of the firewall I cannot see how to remove the fuel rail. Could someone send a photo of what I am missing? I need to change out number one injector. Cannot release the back two .

On my '88, there's the two hex head bolts that hold the fuel rail in place. But there are another two bolts that hold a bracket on the number 3 intake that supports the fuel pressure regulator and assorted fuel/vacuum lines. It's on the far side of the runner as you look in to the engine bay. The fuel line has a hard line that joins the bracket, so that may be preventing removing the rail.

Thanks! I’ll
Look soon.

I just removed mine last weekend.

I found it easier to remove the bracket which holds the three 3 plugs for CHT, speed and reference sensors which enables you to see the fuel rail fitting nearest the firewall. Two 10mm bolts hold the bracket in place which can be removed without unplugging the sensors.
