Angry Injector sleeve hyjinx

Here's a tip for all the n/a 924 owners out there: When you replace your injector inserts(the parts that screw into the head and hold the injectors); make sure EVERY SINGLE THREAD is free from the plastic crap the old inserts leave behind. I had a tiny piece of crap stuck in a thread and when I put my new insert in, it bound it up BADLY; SCARY bad. I thought I was going to crack the head getting it out. And try to find a bottoming 24-1.50 MM tap to chase the threads. HAH! Don't let it happen to you!

Thanks Drew, I found one at a local garage. It cleaned out the threads pretty good, now I just have to wait another week for another insert to arrive from Stuttgart!
