A couple clarifications for injectors

> Next is to apply local hair dryer heat to see if that makes a difference.

I just wanted to comment on the suggestions of using heat to "soften" 
the o-rings.

First, it's pretty much heat (and age of course) that has hardened them 
- if heat softened them, you could just run the engine to do it.

Second, I'd be leery of applying anything other than a lukewarm hot 
water bottle to a device that recently had pressurized gasoline inside 
it - and probably leaks a bit.

I think the various solvent/lubricant-based ideas batted around are a 
better bet, especially fairly safe stuff like WD40.  That, and a nice 
long lever to work the tool ought to do it.
