Hey guys. I took out my fuel rail to replace an injector. I've got three of these small, black plastic spacers. I have no idea where they went before I took off the rail. I assume two of them are for the two screws that bolt the rail to the intake manifold, but where did this third one come from? Unless it was just something left behind from the previous owner.

corect the spacers are for the rail, they go inbetween the rail and manifold, depending if you have SR, KA...greddy (or greddy style) manifold will determine how many you have to use. but every bolt attaching rail to manifold will need a spacer.

should only be 2. the 3rd was prolly just left over.

actually theres 3.

2 on the rail itself, and one is on that tube that runs down the plenum.

my mistake.

its a bracket.

but there is actually 3 if im not mistaken, 1 next to valve cover, and the 2 on the plenum side.
