Would be a good idea to have a set of replacement injector seals on hand just if case one tears or breaks. If they are hard and brittle - just replace anyway. Simple task., and the time to do it is when the injectors are out anyway. Just follow the Bentley on how to remove and test. As I recall, it's a single 10mm bolt that holds the injector rack on each side of the engine. It's located between the injectors. Remove the bolt, wiggle the rack and the injectors should come free. They do not separate from the rack. They are held on by large rubber rings, so not to worry. John Rodgers Clayartist and Moldmaker 88'GL VW Bus Driver Chelsea, AL Http://www.moldhaus.com
