well, ford actually says use clean motor oil but i use brake cylinder assembly lube, its slippery as hell, works great on all kinds of stuff..lol, every set i've ever done has slid in by hand and then light pressure litterally gave it a light pop into place, even with the ac box still installed.

Wait, I just realized something. Did I say remove the a/c box???? I meant just the vacuum canister on the side of the a/c box. DO NOT REMOVE THE WHOLE A/C BOX. Whoops. Yet another good save c00n. I think, I haven't gone back to check my post.

Yeah, it was kinda vague. But I think it's clear now. Man, where's my head today?

these guys have you on the right track here. To pop the injectors in I set them in place and engage the hold down into the top hold down bolt then use a dead blow hammer handle on the lower part fo the clamp then hit the head of the hammer with my hand to seat the injector. It uses the hold down as good leverage and doesn't risk hurting the injector.
