Long and short injector bolts

[FORDAHLBILT]

Quick question, do the long bolts go on top and short on bottom? Injector hold down bolts. Thanks

Yes, longer bolt with longer shoulder goes up top.

:whs:

Install/torque the top hold down bolt with shoulder, then put the injector in and then install/torque the lower hold down bolt

:whs: Too.

Torque is 10 ft/lbs (120 inch pounds)! There is some bad data on the internet (dramatic gasp) stating the spec to be 25 to 30 ft/lbs. You'll snap the bolts if you torque them that tight.

The 120 in/lbs is the revised factory torque figure. Originally, the old factory service manuals said 105 in/lbs. So, if you use an old factory manual it will have the wrong value.
