sure can. they sell a cheap o set at the parts store for like 6 bucks most of the time.

stuff a rag in the TB hole of the blower so nothing gets in there, sh it happens.

yup, pull the C clip outm then pull the injector out.

cut the old O rings off, dont try to take them off or you can break the ends of the injector off. oil up the new o ring and roll them on.

map vac line runs to under the snout then to the fpr, then the bbv.

unless your using that vac tree on the front of the super charger. why 97 got to be so odd ball.

looks ok.

but get some Q tips and some brake cleaner, spray the brake cleaner in the cap so you can dip the Q tips into it, then wipe out the injector holes, those are filthy. you'll need a lot of q tips BTW.

under it so it comes up and around to the plug on the icm.

see how the harness splits one side down the other to the icm

im sorry looking at more pics it over the top of the coil bracket, seen in this pic.

that works. now the tensioner goes back on.

do the oil change. then do your coolant. to fill it up all the way you'll need to run the car. so do the opil so its out of the way and any chance of coolant in there.

fill it with the gallon of coolant, and then fill with water, start the car top off as need, folow VVVVthese directons to bleed the air out.


how to bleed the air out, let it idle rad cap off till the fans turn on, (when the fans are on the temp is over 195 deg, the t stat is wide open) then open the bleeder screw on top the t stat housing a few turns till a steady stream of coolant comes out the hole, shut the screw, top off the rad. cap it.

turn the fing KEY! do it! do it now!
