Replacing Injector Seals
 
Can someone please advise on the proper proedure for removing injectors and the seals and replacing using standard tools?

Thank you

If they are CIS injectors, this is what I did. Went to a parts store and bought a fitting for the injector, less then a buck.
Fabricated a "T" handle for it.

Put a lot of penetrating oil on the "O" rings around the injector, and while pulling on the "T" handle use a wide blade screw driver to pry, using a twisting motion, at the base of the injector.

I have found injectors broken off in the boneyard from attempts to remove them by prying with a screw driver or something. The injector is very narrow right under the threaded portion, and that is where I have seen them broken. That will cause a major pain in the #@%.

The injector must come straight out, without lateral stress.

Oh, and for the install I applied silicon lubericant paste and pushed them right in by hand, with a shop towel.

That's my offering.
