Hi.

I installed this on my old Whirlpool golf cart, and it required an adapter that was screwed in.

The DI injectors are no longer screwed in.
"Is an adapter then plugged in, and how are the nozzles held in place by the lower supports?"

I'm hearing some strange noises (I'm not sure if it's valve or piston issues), and this time, before doing anything rash, I'd like to measure the compression.

When working on a TDI engine, we do it through the spark plug openings. We would do the same on an IDI engine if we could get access to them properly icon_wink.gif.

Thank you.

Then I'll take care of the materials icon_smile.gif.
