Thread: Oil in injector harness loom - advice wanted

Job done and car running well, thanks for the advice.

I've left the seal out of the red ECU plug to allow the residual oil to drain. I'll keep checking every few hundred km's and replace it when all is clear. I will also remove the engine cover again to check the rocker cover seal.

There is one thing I encountered in doing the job that people should be careful of - On the first injector conecting clip that I removed I prised one side off and the other side was still firmly held on. In attempting to gently release it, it suddenly broke free and it droped down into the head. It was a very delicate job trying to locate and retrieve it. Of course, I didn't make that mistake again with the other 4.

Cheers
Martin

I've just replaced the harness in my '03, purchased from a Sydney parts supplier for $84 and it is identical to the original. I removed the top cap from the connector and sealed the wires to the connector and also unclipped the injector connectors and sealed the insulation to the wires there. I wont be trying to cleanup and seal the original.
