    Last cam follower/hpfp removal question. Banjo bolt

    When I put that banjo bolt back in will the hole in the bolt line up automatically with the fuel line? Don't want to thread it in a way that the fuel cant flow though it, if that's even possible.

    Just twist it around in the thread until you get proper alignment, like you would with any other difficult bolt to reach.

    I thought a banjo bolt had a ring machined around the inside so it was impossible to misalign.

    Well I replaced it and all is good. At 83K the follower looked perfectly worn evenly. I'll post pix in the cam thread. Thanks all!
