    Fuel Rail removal (m42)

    Hi All - I'm doing the 'mess under the intake' mod and am also upgrading my injectors. I have the lower intake off with the injectors & fuel rail still connected. I have removed the two nuts holding the rail but cannot figure out how to get the rail off. Here is a pic of where I am at:



    For some reason it isn't liking my link to my pic so here is the link -http://www.flickr.com/photos/dudecati/8568166851/

    Can someone please point me in the right direction? I don't want to break anything so for a change I am asking first!

    Thanks!

    The seals on the injectors are usually really tight, especially if they haven't been removed in a long time (or ever). Pry, twist, keep working at it.

      Spraying PBlaster or Kroil on the seals helps.
      The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

        Thanks for the responses - the PBlaster made a big difference.
