If you haven't read yet I'm having a ruff idle. I am going to pull the injectors and do an inspection then re torque everything under the valve cover( a task I read in my maint. Link) he straight it'll quiet down your 7.3. My question is since my injectors are brand new stage 2 single shots do I need to change the o rings or anything or can I just POP them out inspect the cup and injector and put them back?

You may not have too but i always put new o rings and washers on the sticks anytime i have to pull them.

If the injectors have not been in there too long you will be fine, but give them a good look over before you stick them back in.

The o-rings are all the same if you decide to change them.

do not reuse the injector o rings or copper washer.
