An attaching bracket that is joined to the fuel rail has a hole that aligns with a threaded hole in the engine. An elastomeric grommet is situated in the bracket hole and compressed in a controlled manner by a threaded fastener that is passed through the grommet and threaded into the threaded engine hole until a shoulder of the fastener abuts the engine.
