Default rc 550 question

i wasnt sure how far the rubber o-rings go up on the injector, do they go all the way up as far as they can or do they kinda stay lower? and also, its a b16a2, do i need to take those fuel rail spacers that are on the 3 studs that the rail goes on? cause my injectors arent going in all the way and im not sure if its the o-rings or if im suppose to take those spacers out? thanks guys

Leave the spacers...it's the o-rings. Some people drill the o-rings out, some people just tighten the **** out of their rail until the injectors seat. I like the second option.

Put the o rings in the manifold. Put the injectors in the rail. Line the rail/injectors up with the holes on the manifold. Tighten the rail slowly, checking how the o rings are doing often. They should seat, especially with a little lubrication, but it will be a tight fit.
