    you think i could change my injectors with one hand?

    i hurt my hand and its all bandaged up and cant use it for about a month atleast. my car is stuck on jackstands till its better and i can do suspension work again. i got a mark d chip and injectors i wana install. think i could do it with one hand if i take the valve cover off?

        I'd be more concerned about wiping your bum!

            Wait, a quarter inch of your finger is gone?

            Well, good luck changing injectors with one hand. Took me long enough with two, even after I got the fuel rail out with the injectors on it. Get a friend to help you.

                I hope it isn't the finger you use for "the bird." Because if it is, people will just elbow their friends, point, and laugh when you flip them off.

                  I hope it's not the hand you use to beat off. I had a friend who alternated hands every day for fear that something would happen to ol' righty.

                      fuel rail is a bitch to take off with 2 working hands. but if you're determined enough i think you could do it.

                          use a pry bar with the one hand, nice and easy. spray it down with some penetrating lube.
