What's the trick Trying to get Injector's out 12 valve
Trying to remove my injector's out of a 12 valve, going to get them check to see what's good or bad, remove all lock nuts, do they pull straight out or twisted out with a 15 wrench, etc.. I have soaked all injectors with liquid wrench, the move just a little but not coming out . Bob

Go get a 1 3/8" chunk of 3/4" EMT electrical conduit and a large washer. Once all the lines are off the injector slide the conduit and washer over the injector body. Next take a lugnut off your truck and thread it onto the injector where the top line was. Gently tighten the nut till the injector pops loose. Repeat 5 more times.

They pull straight out. Sometimes locking on some vicegrips and jiggling will get them.
Easier way that I use is to cut a piece of 1/2 or 3/4" PCV or steel pipe 1-3/8" long, slip it over the injector, screw down one of your front wheel lug nuts on the top of the injector with a washer underneath. They will come out very easy with this method, sometimes you don't even need a wrench.
Make sure to remove the injection and small return lines completely from both ends as a unit.
If you try to bend them out of the way not only will you have a hard time lining them back up again but it is also highly likely you will crack or kink one of the hardened steel lines. They aren't meant to be bent.
