oh no, ill do a brief write up.
w/ cold engine off.
tools and items needed:
10mm ratchet with extension
brake parts cleaner
old tooth brush or wire brush
you will possibly need 4 injector O rings, unless you want a leak from the fuel rail, get from honda dealer, or auto parts store.
step one, remove three nuts holding fuel rail on and pull off of mounts
step two, unplug wires from injectors
step three, pull out injectors, you may be able to reuse the o rings, but if they are even cracked replace.
step four inspect injector ports with a flash light to check for build up.
step five, spray injector inlet and nozzle with brake parts cleaner, agitate with tooth brush to remove stuck on carbon and sludge, being careful you can even use a tooth pick to scrape out tight spots, but i don't do this.
step six, let dry or blow off with compressed air, you can use a air duster that you would use for a keyboard and such.
step seven, inspect nozzles and inlets clean again if needed, then dry agin.
step eight, if heavy build up in intake manifold clean that. PM me for directions.
step nine, place injector inlet nipple back into the fuel rail, making sure O ring make seal on the inside and the rubber sleeve on the neck of the injector is seated against fuel rail.
step 10, making sure the large bottom O ring is seated in the intake manifold carefully place fuel rail back, adjusting injectors untill they are seated right, you may have to use some force, which is why you place the delicte upper O ring in first.
step eleven, tighten bolts and re connect purge line, and electrical connections.
step twelve, crank engine and let get to normal operating temperature check for leaks, take for test drive and make sure there is no missfires or knocking.
while you are at it id change out your spark plugs and change the fuel filter.
the reason i advise to use brake parts cleaner is becuase it evaporates fast, if it wont take the sludge off use maximum strenght throttle body cleaner, you can also clean the spark plugs in the same manner.
