pulling oil nozzles
When people say "pull out the oil injector nozzles", does that mean literally just pull straight out, or do I turn-turn-turn and pull out?
When I pull, it doesn't budge, and when I try to turn the nut, I can't get my wrench in there, too fat! (the wrench)
Please help.

LOL I am dealing with the exact same problem as I type. I was thinking I might file down one of my 3 14mm open end wrenches to get it in there. Not sure if its threaded or not, I assume so.. the manifold ones are.

vice grips!! I got a wrench on my manifold ones, but i had to use vice grips to grab the ones in the block... I figured I wouldn't be using them anymore anyway, but i damaged them suprisingly little by getting them out..yeah..they're threaded just like the other ones
You gonna plug it with a bolt + teflon tape?

wha?
I cant beleive this was an actual conversation.
You guys are kidding, right?
Pull them straight out?!
A standard 3/4 box end wrench works perfectly.
Needs almost no clearance, and grips perfectly.

Come on, take your time and do it right... You'll need to remove the upper intake manifold, fuel rails, all that stuff. God knows there are plenty of things under there that need replacing anyway (hoses, gaskets, vac lines). You should be able to get a crescent wrench on 'em no problem then! I find that if I try to do something quick I always get VERY frustrated. I've learned to take the time to remove EVERYTHING and it goes a lot smoother.

theres no need to grind tools.
A 3/4 box end standard wrench works fine.
Jeremy and I feel the same way on this one....
If this is the way you'll work on your cars, (espeicially somthing as important as the oil injectors), then your cars are in the wrong hands.
