    Air injector question/seal

    2007 300xs 25” shaft 1E002729

    I had my air injectors cleaned, all orings and the white Teflon seals replaced. A few questions, better to use DFI oil when installing, 2-4-C or oring lube?
    how would you know the Teflon seal is sealing correctly/100%?

    I like Parker O-ring lube. It does what it was made for.

    I used a small amount of DFI oil. No issues.

    Is it normal for the fuel injector to have some movement/spin. It’s been awhile since I have messed with mine and noticed I can rotate them clockwise/counterclockwise slightly.
