Spinach

They can be complete gits to get out.

I had thought about making a puller tool to get them out.

Try wrapping some cord/wire onto the top and pulling on that.

Or some lub/oil and wiggle them about to get it by the o-rings (they are the thing holding them in)

Make sure u release the fuel pressure before removing the first injector though.

Question


Hi,

Just wondering on the removal of injectors! Is this a hard, long job to accomplish?

Regards
