Default Injectors

Why is it such a pain to change injectors. It feels like I have to take the entire engine appart! And the worst is the Throttle area.

It took me like an hour to swap my injectors, and I also had to wire new clips in.

In other words: Man the **** up.

Maybe it is just my car, an 04 Mazda Speed with the factory turbo. And I guess I should clairify. Swapping the injectors is not hard. Removing the intake manifold is a pain.

Go to the meet and greet. Post there. Be prepared to be a little *** hurt. Maybe read the ultimate noobs read first thread https://www.miataturbo.net/meet-greet-40/ultimate-noobs-read-first-sticky-35885/

There is the link. Do this now. Also post pics of cars, mother, or girlfriend. No pics will result in a comment by Samnavy. Everyone has to make an introduction.

We're here, we just don't go up north that much. If you ever in Tinley or Orland park and see a flash of white associated with something that sounds like a jet taking off...that would be me.

If you see a black 4th gen Camaro that's moving real slow, sounds like **** and blows black smoke like a 18th century whaling ship...that would be Madhatter.

You weren't complaining when we took it out yesterday dick.

Aricjm15 if your ever up on the southside just look for flashing blue and red lights, odds are the guy infront of the cop car would be me. 37 moving violations and counting.
