I have removed the fuel lines from the fuel rail and all the mounting bolts from the fuel rail, the only prblem is I cant get the injectors to lift out. From what I understand they are supposed to just ease out with the rail. any suggestions?

Notes
REPLACING ONE FUEL INJECTOR
* Unscrew four mounting bolts of injection pipe.
* Push up injection pipe until fuel injectors have cleared the guide on the intake manifold.
* Pull off plug on fuel injector.
* Lift out retainer and pull fuel injector out of injection pipe.
Installation Note:
* Check O-rings (1), replacing if necessary.
* Check code number (2). FD = Manufacturing date.
* Check position of plastic washer (3).
* Check color of plug receptacle (5) or injector guard (4).
* Only coat O-rings for installation with Vaseline or SAE 90/SAE 80 gear lube.

Call a dealer and ask or the O-ring is dry rotted.there maybe a special tool.Ask the Auto parts store.

Chances are that the injector O-rings have lost their suppleness over time and have fused the rubber portion to the metal injector housing. Spray with Gumor WD-40 to provide a little solventing and lubrication to the injector insertion areas and they should "wobble" there way out. Be sure to replace the old O-rings with new ones!!!
