  10. Install the fuel rail (1) and fuel injectors (2) by aligning the fuel injectors with their respective ports and pressing the four fuel rail snap-lock connectors into the intake manifold until they lock in place. DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the fuel rail in place. The need for excessive pressure may be caused by misalignment of a fuel injector and could cause damage to the seal or intake manifold.
