Injector o-rings

[fatlizzard]

I am going to install new injector o-rings as I think mine are leaking, Should I put some sort of lube on the new o-rings? If so what?

I just used clean gasoline to lube mine. Thats what the injectors will be subjected to so thats what you should put. I think some people put oil or grease but I think gasoline is a better choice.

NO! Gasoline is a horrible lubricant - it'll dry out the O-rings if you let it sit.

FSM specifies motor oil - I used a non-hardening race lube like the factory does, but you will be fine with regular old 10w-30.

How about vaseline? It's petroleum based so it should mix with gas,
If not where can I buy the non hardening race lube?
Thanks !!!!!!!

Motor Oil.

Gasoline will dry out and crack the o-ring if you take to long to install and get the motor running.
