Tonight I was working on a car, and came to the point where it was time to put the injector clips back on. Well, tonight I found a simple six second installation method that will leave the hair on your head, the beer in the fridge, and the screw driver out of the wall.
Now, we all no what a piss poor job the mitsu God's did designing the little injector clip 'staples' that hold the injector clips onto the injectors. These little f.u.c.k.e.r.s sometimes go in easily (well, never for me, but i've heard others say that sometimes they do), or they can be as painfull as a night with the bloomington IDB initiation club. Untill tonight my solution was broken clips or just asking people to kindly not smoke next to my car when it was idling due to the massive amounts of fuel being sprayed out. You will need: 2 needle nose pliers one hand and 2 minutes for all 4 Allright, this is your starting point: ![]() Begin by inserting one of the needle nose pliers into the inside of the clip, with the pliers opening width wise of the clip. Fit the tips of the pliers in between the center console and the plastic outer edge. Here is a pic that does better than my description: ![]() T.B.A. - do to scripts and functions of this board I can only post so many pics per reply... -------------------- game over.

Fairly simple, and no ones cussing yet. Take the second set of pliers and insert them into the clip as well, in the same fashion. Once again, here is another pic that does a better job than my words would.
