Hi I need help, I have replaced all four injectors after cleaning the ports they slide into, and after fitting the collars on and tightening them up to a point I can't tighten them any more, I find there is still a lot of movement in them is this normal as of yet I still have not attached the fuel pipes on. Am I doing anything wrong and is the movement normal. Cheers

have you fitted the collars upside down .. by chance ??
[ diagram : .. https://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/td4-fuel-injectors--pipes-11559-c.asp .. ]

just asking .. as when i replaced my injectors .. i accidentally did that on the first injector
and it didn't clamp down properly .. on double checking [via that diagram]
i realised my mistake ..
