    Fuel Injector issues

    So, while pulling off my fuel rail to replace a coolant pipe, and when I pulled the rail away 2 of the 4 injectors lost their tips and o-rings, and they're now kicking around the cylinders. Um. Any good way to get those out and can I just replace the tips when I do?

    They'll get eaten by the cat pretty quickly the first time you start up...

    ...but a tube on your shop vac down the spark plug hole might do it. Works for other hardware
    I've dropped down there...

      ^This.

      Just use some tape and adapt your vacuum hose down to something small enough to get past the valve. Just be sure not to bash the valve too much. You can of course replace the tips (any auto parts should have them and O-rings if needed).
