12v Injector Removal Tool

how are these made does someone have a picture of it

Some say to use a lugnut and a short piece of pipe, but I just used a lugnut and a regular prybar for the back 2 or3 cylinders, and a rolling head prybar for the front ones. Popped right out.



If you use the pipe, it needs to be just long enough, that the lugnut will touch, and as you tighten it up, the injctor will be pulled up.

I made this little slide hammer. Works good.

You don't even have to get that technical with it, use a piece of 3/4" conduit about 1 1/4" to 1 1/2" and an M14 x 1. 5 pitch nut and it will walk right out... ... you might have $3. 00 in it when your done!

You can also take an old injector hold down nut thread it in on or two turns, take another old hold down stack it on top then use the lug nut to push against the hold downs. I did this because I was to lazy to run to home depot to get some conduit.

Heck... you can get even lazyer... . (is that a word?)... . I just put my vicegrips on the flat sections lightly... and use a pry bar or a lady finger (L shaped) and they pop right out.

Don't do that - because someone's gonna end up with your cores with the return side all dinged up from using Vice Grips on them.

No no no! use the common sense sides! The 2 that are easily set up for wrench placement!



If you can't figure that out you shouldn't be working on these trucks!

Josh,

Here is what I made for my first gen... I've since shortened it to about 6 inches. Only thing I needed to buy was the 12mm nut that screws to the injector top. I already had the 3/8 threaded rod and that cylinder.

You'll need a 14mm nut for a second gen puller.

Matt

Very Very true! Next time your up (dyno day?) take a look at my injectors... they have been out 3 times... if you can find marks from my vicegrips... . I'll buy you a beer. Oh wait... I'll probably buy you a beer anyway!

Josh:



I won't be able to see your injectors clearly - your truck leaks oil (sweats horsepower... ) so bad that the marks left by the vice grips won't be noticeable! :-laf



Matt

 

[JoshPeters]

So... . at 260,000 miles things are gonna sweat horsepower!



Josh

 

[DWitcher]

Dually lugnut with the built on washer and a short 3/4 drive socket works everytime.

 

[biggy238]

You sure at that age it's not just incontainance? rather than sweat

 

[Will24]

I just used a regular slide hammer for the front 4 on mine, the back two I pulled the hold down nuts off, put a 7/8" wrench (box end) over the injector, then put a lug nut on top, with the wrench pivoting on a head bolt, three smacks from a ball peen on the end of the wrench pops the injectors out.

(Josh and Matt, I can see you guys arguing about the vice grip thing still at IRP next year, lol)

Matt

Thanks Matt, I have been looking for a good comeback when leaving spots on my friends streets and driveways :-laf :-laf :-laf

 

[JoshPeters]

My thoughts are... ... It's got 260,000 miles... . Hard miles... . it's intitled to leak oil!



Till I pull the engine and reseal EVERYTHING..... I'll top it off every once in a while!
