Message	Hello all So I'm in the process of converting my old style injectors to new style ones in my NA I've got a set of new style used injectors that I'm removing from their fuel rails I've gotten three out by placing the the rails upside down in a vice, putting a 7mm socket over the pintle cap and giving it a few taps with a hammer Doing so destroyed the plastic caps, however I'm under the impression that they can be replaced (most of them were broken anyways) What I want to know is, did I harm the injectors in any way? Beyond the broken plastic caps they look fine, I just want to be sure this is okay before doing the rest. Also, I'm going with the Z1 conversion kit plus the needed o-rings. Besides a plenum gasket, are there any other parts I absolutely NEED to do this job? And apart from that what are some maintenance items to take care of while I'm in there? I know of the tb coolant bypass but I'm trying to get some more info about that as most everything I've read seems to be for TT models. Thanks for reading
