Can't Get Injectors In
#1
Is there a certain thing or process I need to do with the injectors? I cannot get them back in the manifold no matter how hard I push. 
I literally don't understand.

What engine is this? Rallye as per your profile?

Maybe a spray of wd40 to help them slide in.

Thanks Paul, I'll have a go. If I know they're a problem I'll struggle on.  Angry

As Mei says, tiny smear of grease and if they won't just push straight in, you should be able to rotate them whilst pushing to wiggle them in.

Also be careful that the fuel rail is seated on the top of them properly before tightening down otherwise it will pinch a seal and split it.

Cheers guys, the smear of grease did the job perfectly. Just found the bloody metal clips though, got to work out where they went now!  Nospeak

Once you put the fuel rail on they go on the top of the injectors and the metal cups on the bottom of the fuel rail. They should just click on, if you have to force them on you're not putting them on the right way. Have a search on the gti6 forum people have uploaded photographs of them fitted correctly I seem to remember.

Standard grease will eat rubber by the way. If you use any grease use red rubber grease, although its expensive so maybe just some spit!

I rebuilt the whole lot from the fuel rail down, so the clips are on correctly, they just don't quite seem to sit too well in the manifold now but I'll see what happens there in due course.
