Ya pull 'em out. I use a mega pair of vice grips and a huge screwdriver as a
lever.

100psi across 1/1000" of a square inch is less than an ounce of force. If you
hold a spraying injector, you can feel almost no reaction. The KABOOM is
irrelevant, becase the injectors spray into the manifold, not the cylinders.

Just means a bit of running round the front of the car.
