Fuel Injector Removal
I am replacing all the o-rings on my injectors. Is there a trick to get the injectors out of the fuel rail? It seems to be the o-ring holding it in there.
Thank you,

They just get sort of bound in with age. Just really have to pull.
Be prepared to need a new fuel rail. When I did the one's on my Disco the cups in the rail had corroded and I couldn't get a good seal with new o-rings. Petrol spewing all over the engine isn't a good feeling.
If they aren't leaking, I'd leave well enough alone.

The service manual said to change the o-rings when removing the injectors. The head gasket kit I bought came with 16 injector o-rings. It was not leaking so I will leave them in the fuel rail and just change the manifold side. I wonder what land rover would want for a new fuel rail? Probably more then my rover is worth.
