How I cant seem to remove the pintle cap...It's really cracked and im afraid of hurting the injector if I get to "not gentle" with it

Cut the pintle cap off with a sharp knife, then buy replacements from Mazdatrix.

If both injectors are high impedance, and that's how the car is set up, then all you need to do is change the plugs on the harness.

Thanks Aaron, is there any particular method youd suggest for changing the plugs? Because I really dont want to screw up my fuel or fry anything.

The injector wiring is non polar. Just cut off the old plugs, solder on new ones, use heat shrink, then wrap them as a harness.

I have not had any luck buying pintle caps locally. I always have to get them from Mazdatrix. Not sure what's up with that error though.
