DSX Flex Fuel Package Install for E85

Thanks! Can wait to see everyone too. Gonna be a blast!

Well, today, I started the Flex Fuel sensor and ID1050x injectors (ID850's for sale! $550 shipped < 800 miles on them -- darn flex fuel setup ;o)

I started on the Flex Fuel sensor -- seem straight forward until I tried to install it on the fuel line -- just would not click. Took off the slip on connector, tried it that way, just would not budge. Call Dave and asked him about it -- seems the orings inside my be a bit tight -- so, used my favorite lube:



lightly coated the fuel line, and -- click -- slipped on like butter -- that is the way to do this, lightly coat the fuel line and snap this puppy on:







Added the harness to the nearest coil pack and put it in series with it:



The last thing to do is add the sensor wire to pin 40 -- I'll do that later.

Next, the injectors. There are plenty of examples on the forum on how to remove the fuel rail. The key item to remember is unbolting the hat bolt on the passenger's rear in order to remove the rail:



installing the id1050x injectors:





Honestly, was pretty simple!

Next installed the injector connectors, fuel lines, and coil packs:









Installed the fuel rail bolts and tighten to 89 inch lbs - also tightened the hat bolt I loosened.

Now, just need to do the wiring for the pin-out #40, the wiring for the pump, DSX FPCM, and then the tune!

BTW, here is a DIY done by BigMatt (Note, this is for the SS, not the ZL1):
