They also need to be shimmed correctly so the "break" pressure is correct and spray pattern needs checking- All specialist stuff really.
Thanks Col..Im going to try and find a specialist today...my mate used to deal inToyota Estimas he was the local specialist for them so I will be ringing him at some point today after Ive checked out the pipe nut...its raining here just now so later Im going to clean the injector off and tape some tissue round the body then start the engine and watch where the fuel hits it first..before I touch the pipe nut...just for my own satisfaction...your right I am getting confused...Ive read such a lot on this van/engine its haddled my brain...info overload thats sending me off on tangents...I think a rest from it over the weekend is in order...(maybe!)...or just buy new injectors...I was quoted £70 each from ECP...cant recall the make though...does this sound about right....
