Re: Injector Removal



<<The one and only sentence I can find tin the Bentley is in section 
20.17, wherein it sayeth: "Pull injectors (in direction of arrow) out of 
their inserts with fuel lines left attached."  [part of checking fuel 
injector sequence...]>>

	Looks right to me. Although they neglect to mention that they can be 
an absolute PITA to get out. I normally *pry* them out using a pair of vise 
grips and a long screwdriver. Getting the injectors out is fairly easy, I've 
always had a very bad time getting the shrouds out of the head. I like to 
pull and clean them as well.
	Examine the injectors to make sure the o-rings come out complete. If 
they, by chance, have cooked into the housing it can make it tough (if not 
impossible) to get the new injectors installed in an air tight condition.

	Later.
