I've turned down a "standard Bosch injector" (0280 150 792) to exactly the same diameter as the stock plastic injector holder. In that way both the stock injector and the new one are identical in size and will use the same seal (o-ring) as original. I also had some spacers made which places the seal in the same position as on the stock one. I will probably use 2 o-rings on each injector just to be safe, I don't want any leakage.
Stock injector... The turned one without seal and spacer and then the new modified one. |
Se how nice the new injectors fit, notice the spacer which put the seal in a correct place. |
All injectors in place, ready to measure for the fuel rail. |

What do you mean by "turned down".

I suppose grind down should be a better translation, otherwise the original o-ring wouldn't fit on the injector...
