Silicone Grease For O-rings

[peter_m7uk]

Just coming to re-fit the injectors onto the rail of my EFi Pinto, but Haynes says

I need some silicone grease (to a Ford spec) for the O-rings. I can get

silicone spray from my motor factors, but just wondering if the Ford stuff will be

any different? Wouldn't want to use the wrong stuff, then get fuel spraying all

over my engine bay! What has anyone else used for this job?

 

Cheers,

Pete

The spray you have will be fine it is only to allow the O-ring to slip into place without getting stuck and damaged. Yours are being treated well getting silicone in most places it’s a case of a smear of grease or engine oil if they are lucky
