Plugging Fuel Injector Ports

I'm looking for some technical advice on sealing the Fuel Injector port openings on a 1981 GPz 1100 in which I have replaced with BS34's. I made plates and bolted them down but they leaked air causing a high idle.

Note, I would rather not pull the head.

Thanks

Put some nitros valves in there and hook them up.

Harold I made some aluminum plugs when I did this and used o-rings to seal the plugs . I'll try and get some pics of what I did tonight

here it is. Held it inplace with a simple aluminum keeper plate with two holes drilled to secure to existing injector screw holes

screw it ,I give up trying to load pics onto this website.

Harold . basically, I turned 4 aluminum plugs with a larger diameter head, the underside of the head will secure an o-ring(for sealing), the head should be tall enough to be just proud of the injector mounting surface. I then made 4 keeper plates,dilled to match the injector mounting holes which place tension on the plugs.I didnt need to remove the head either

There you have it. I have the plates and was wondering about a plug, but never considered a lip to hold an O-Ring. Perrrrrrfect. It will be done this week.

Thanks Barn
