Default Removing Injectors

Hi all,

in the process of doing a few things to my engine and i wanted to remove the injectors.
I took the little cap off the top of one last night and unplugged it then tried to pull it out but didnt want to use too much force, Is there anything else holding it in?

thanks in advance....

just done the same on my scoob,nothing else holding them in but they are tight little buggers, just a bit of patients and dont be too scared to pull a little harder.
I used a very small screw driver just to prise under injector (were wire plugs in) to give me a bit of leverage....goodluck

Cheers, i thought they might just be tight. But was afraid to pull and end up breaking them without checking.

Try twisting them from side to side as you pull them....the petrol acts as a lube and they pop out much better
