When you get the new o-rings, put a little oil on them before inserting them !!! It will make life alot better !!! Bill

well i did but for some stupid reason nitrous express fuel rail injector holes are pretty damn sharp would have been a good idea to smooth out the top edge.

Maybe a large countersink bit in a drill. Just enough for a little taper...
Good Luck, Bill

Take a piece of emry cloth and put pressure with finger tip and spin around each hole until you take off that sharp lip.
Also we always use some assembly lube on o-rings prior to installing.

Good Luck........ By the way Car Quest orders them for us all the time.

thanks just ordered some from summit. I might try the emory cloth bit but i might have jacked them up by trying to force them( 0 patience ) just pissed i have to put off the rest of the install waiting on freaking o-rings.

On some of the race applications they make them SOO tight we've had to put the o rings in the microwave at the shop first to make soft enough to install without damage. 20 seconds per pair is what worked for us.

i didn't have any issues with mine. just have to be slow and remember they go in at an angle.

well for some reason i kinda sorta wasn't paying enough attention when i tried to stuff them in. i think i got it now. first time dealing with NOS should be interesting. lol
