removing injectors from the rail
 

anyone has a special trick on how to remove the injectors from their rail when they are dry and brittle. I always end up chewing the plastic because of the pliers and the screw driver i use to remove them, anyone has a magic trick? I heard you could use compressed air to pop them out, anyone done that?

I use a screwdriver as a type of pry bar, in the area of the injector where the connector is located, that's the strongest point. Start with a small thin flat blade, then work your way up to two larger sizes. It'll pop right out :icon_tup:

I do the same as Rich mentioned. I use a screwdriver and carefully pry the injector up. Once its up far enough, then I just twist and pull with my hands.

yeah that's what i do also but i was looking for an other trick. Usually when i do that, i end up chipping the side of the injector cause it's all dry.

thanks though, i guess there is no miracle solution.

Mole grips mate.

I have always just used mole grips to get them out, on the top of the injector in the middle there is kinda a metal bit you can grab with the mole grips - grab em nice and tight and twist and pull and itll come out.

when you put them back in coat the orings with oil, pops in nice and easy.

I just put a small socket in the bottom of the injector holder and push it in and the injectors pop out. I think its a 6 or 8mm socket.
