Hi all - as part of installing my Procharger stage II kit, I am installing Deatschwerks 95# injectors, and I ran into a question about installation using the extenders ("top hats"). The extenders are to make the EV14 body the length of an EV6 so that they fit as stock ones would. I wondered if I installed them correctly and if I was supposed to use two retaining clips per injector? I installed both, and the first one holds the top hat (extender) to the fuel rail, and the 2nd one I used to hold the injector body to the top hat (see pics). Without the 2nd one, when you would remove the fuel rail they would all come out, possibly making a big mess. I had an issue where I couldn't start my car with the fuel pump fuse out (to drain the fuel)...so I really couldn't drain all the fuel.
Anyway, it's all together back on the motor, but I noticed they are ever so slightly longer than the factory ones as there is a tiny (like 1/16") between the fuel rail bracket holes and the fuel rail spacers. I hope this all makes sense...any insight would be much appreciated. Please see the pics. Let me know if this post would be better in the blower section or other... thank you!
