i want to remove the injectors , i started and manged to get 2 of the electrical clips after a bit , but could not get any of the others , is there a tip , or special tool needed ? it seems that u have to get the elctrical connectors off 1st so u can get the bolts out from the fuel rail?

I pulled mine off a 2.0 litre E30 and found they came off easily with just a little upwards pull either side of the connector.
When gettin the actual injectors out I just turned them whilst pulling up and they came out with alittle pressure.

I dont want to patronise you , but i take it that you are pressing in the little metal bar on the electrical connector ?
It just seems strange that you can only get 2 off !
If you are aware then just tell me to put a fookin cork in it ! !

Yep,
1 st tryed pushing the metal wire clips in , ie to wartds the inlet m/fold , like the cold start injector , then found that they release if you, can get a sharp srew driver behind the clips and pull it towards head , but only managed a few this way ? thanks for replies any way , sounds like they should just pop off , if only i could release the clips!
