Trying to remove Fuel Injectors so as to remove
cylinder head on 80 320i.

Manual says to "remove jubilee clips and lever screwdriver
against rocker cover under injector"

WHAT is a jubliee clip? Is that the upper 12mm nut that holds in the injector line?

Do these suckers just POP out? My Haynes manual is soaked
in grease and too used. So is my patience...

I've tryed turning them w/a wrench 'cause I thought they
screwed in but they just turn and turn w/no progress.

Any info would be of help.

back to the fray...

TIA

They should just pop out. You might have to work at it a little but they will come out. Careful with the line they can snap easily. You should replace the injector seals, the are very cheap.
