Spray WD-40 into the crevice between the injector and fuel rail to lubricate the o-ring.

stick a flat screw driver behind the injector and twist after you spray the WD 40 or what ever you decide to use. Careful becuase the injector will pop high into the air.

there is a notch in the injector that you can put a flat head in. use something as a fulcrum and it will pop out. you selling that extra fuel rail? i may need one later this week and i still owe you some money from the GLD outing.
