Is there anything i need to watch for or be cautious with when changing the o rings?
The black one goes on top, white on bottom, copper on the injector nozzle, and lube them with clean oil or vaseline. I always cover the open side of the motor and crank it over to remove diesel from the cylinders to prevent hydrolocking. Make DAMN SURE you are not in the path of any diesel spray that WILL blow out of the cylinder when it turns over. Clean the cups of any excess liquid or debris and reinstall the injectors. ALSO remember to disable the fuel pump before cranking.
