• Q: How to service and repair the fuel injector on 2006 Toyota Solara?

  A: Start the repair of the fuel injector by stopping the gasoline from leaking. First detach the air cleaner cap sub-assembly while removing the engine cover sub-assembly No.1 followed by disconnecting the fuel tube sub-assembly. The procedure involves removing the fuel delivery pipe with injectors while avoiding injector drops through ventilation hose No. 2 removal and disconnecting each of the 4 injector connectors before taking out the delivery pipe and 4 injectors as well as their 2 clamps and wire harness, followed by removing the 2 spacers from the cylinder head. The fuel injector assembly installation process begins with adding a new insulator to the injector followed by applying petroleum or grease to a new O-ring before installing it to the injector; additionally, apply petroleum or grease to the O-ring contact area on the delivery pipe. Insert the fuel injector into the delivery pipe and perform twisting motion forwards and backwards but take care to avoid rotating the O-ring. After installation verify smooth turning by the injector switch. A new O-ring should replace the original if this step cannot be achieved. The injector connector needs to be oriented toward the bottom of its position. First secure the 2 spacers to the cylinder head while placing the delivery pipe with its 4 injectors and loosely fasten the 2 bolts which hold the delivery pipe to the cylinder head until all 4 injector connectors face outward. The 2 bolts must be securely tightened to 20 N.m torque before installation of the 2 clamps and wire harness followed by 4 injector connector connection and placement of ventilation hose No. 2. The fuel tube sub-assembly requires connection while you install the air cleaner cap with air cleaner hose and identify fuel leaks before finishing with engine cover sub-assembly No.1.
