Stumped?

Hey is there some trick that i dont know about to pulling the fuel injectors out of the sockets. They seem to be stuck, i can turn them but they wont come out! And are the primaries top or side feed?

the secondarys are alot easier to pull from what i hear. the primaries are top feed. when i changed my secondaries we pulled with some pliers on the top shaft and a flat head screwdriver prying on the plastic lip a little. be careful though not to crack the plastic. you will have to pull hard they dont come out that easy. i hope that helps good luck.

I had a lot of trouble with all of them. I ended up taking pliers to the tops and pulling really hard. This ruined all of the plastic pieces. It did not matter that they were ruined since the injectors were so fouled that I replaced them all. From looking at the injectors after they were out it seemed that the sediment held them in by pinching the rubber seal to the housing as I pulled.

By the way I think that all the ingectors are side feed.
