Stripped Injector Rail

[Scott0321]

Well, it looks like I fell victim to the ole brass insert on the injector rail. I'll worry about it in the Spring. Was down to the back side bolt on the rail when I went to torque it down and realized it was just spinning . The good news is the rail is snug.

is anyone aware of potential issues if I ignore it until this time next year. BTW 215 SCIC engine. Nothing frustrates me more that a crappy design flaw that is almost certain to cause the consumer/end user nothing but grief.

Remove insert from bolt. Mix and apply a SMALL amount of JB WELD (I used the quick set type) to the outside of the insert. DO NOT GET ANY ON THE THREADS INSIDE INSERT. Worked great for me.

TY for the advice. I've seen several different methods, some worked..some didn't . It's down for a long winter's nap now. It will be my first project in the Spring.
