I got a guy at work with what I need but he won't just lete borrow it without coming over and ruining my day.
James I'll take you up on that. I thought I could get them out last night I just ran out of time. I have to swing by the dealer ony way home anyway.

Just use a heal bar and take the injector out by prying under the hold down and on top of the head bolt. if the cups come then reseal it. I pull all the cups and reseal them anyways for piece of mind knowing that I didn't disturb one that leak. done a lot of sets and never had one stuck very bad. if the cup come oh well.
I've never had one I couldn't get out with this.. Knock on wood... I've got an injector job Thursday

I've got one of those I don't think it works all that well. I've got a lug nut welded to a cv swivel on a slide bar hammer that will get it done when they are real stuck

This pry bar works great everytime, under the hold down, and the heal on the top of the head bolt. pull all four injector in a minute. cup or no cup. if the cup doesn't come use that puller tool Bullfrogjohnson (member) built from a concrete anchor, and reseal the cups too.

i just gave Sean my setup.
take an old injector hard line, cut line and pull the injector threaded nut off the line. take a 1/2" universal joint and weld the nut to one end. then take a harbor freight slide hammer setup and pull the threaded end that has a lip on the end of it for pulling bearing races out (that damn thing never works cause the metal is too soft and rounds the lip off), weld that end to the other side of the universal joint and now you can use the slide hammer to pop stuck injectors out. I had to build a new one for Sean cause my other one grew legs and walked off and had to use a fuel rail nut side. not sure if it will work so i told him to try it and see what happens. The old setup worked awesome but i never got to try it on the back injectors under the cowling, those always came right out.

Thanks again James, the way my day is looking i might get off before the sun goes down. So I'll give it a try today
I broke mine the 3rd injector I pulled
Do they warranty them?
Yellowchevy
Mac IIRC is a dealer for them, they warrantied mine... I had one stuck something fierce and it broke the tip right off. All the others came out by hand. On the LB7 I used a heel bar under the hold down. Didn't even bother with the KM tool.
The slide hammer is the best way. I have had one for pulling the pencil nozzles out of Cat engines for years. Mine was at work when I needed it for my truck
Well the slide hammer worked like a mother ****in dream. One popped right out with one hit. The really stuck one took about 5 hard hits but still came out and surprisingly both cups look damn good on the outside. Well see if I can separate them now.
Kinda what i was thinking, I tried prying on them, what are they made of I only have oxy acetalyne torches so I guess ill start easy. Or try a brass punch
What I always use. I have used an oxy/acetylene in a pinch. Small tip and keep it rich
