We should also point out that there are 2 injector connectors on each side of 
the engine. Each pair has one black boot and one grey boot. One of these colors 
should be connected to the front injector and one to the rear. Sorry, but I can 
never remember which way it is supposed to go. The Bentley has that info, or 
perhaps someone else remembers which way they go.
