A method and an apparatus for maintaining the alignment of a fuel injector during shipping and normal use. In one embodiment of the invention, a clip for retaining a fuel injector to a fuel rail cup that has an annular flange is provided. The clip has a substantially flat base to at least partially surround an end of the fuel injector and a plurality of upstanding tangs to receive and substantially surround the annular flange. An alignment protrusion is also provided on the clip to interface with the annular flange to prevent axial rotation of the fuel injector relative to the fuel rail cup.

A readily assemblable and disassemblable cart has snap-locking vertical and lateral members. The vertical members and top and bottom rails include notched end portions which define extended portions. The lateral rails have bores formed in each of the ends thereof for receiving two of the extended portions. The extended portions also include latching members which, when the cart is assembled, extend into openings in the lateral rails which are transverse to, and contiguous with the bores.
