Also, use caution when removing the metal clips on your injector and TPS connections (if you have them), I ruined mine on my first 22RE rebuild.


This is an excellent point -- these plastic/bakelite/whatever casings that the metal clips reside in become brittle with age and break easily, also the clips can bend. So use something like a small, fine bladed screwdriver a pry these off very gently. Be careful and take your time.

Also, a trick for reinstalling the injector o-rings is to use a little (little!) Vaseline as lube, this keeps the o-rings from getting twisted and damaged/torn.
