Larry,
Good to see you participating again. On a less positive note, I'll guess you've never pulled a set of diesel injectors. More often than not they don't just pop right out. If they are really "in there" the only way to remove them is to loosen the mounting hardware a skosh and crnk the engine in hopes that the compression pressures will knock them loose. Do not, repeat, do not remove the mounting hardware before cranking the engine. An injector flying through the air is just like a missle and quite as deadly.

Others have two bolts holding down a holder bar like our Perkins. You'll need a socket and open end wrench to get the line off it. It helps if an intake or exhaust valve is open...(c; Larry -- Grade School Physics Factoid: A building cannot freefall into its own footprint without skilled demolition. |
