In Reply to: Re: what tools needed to pull fuel rail, injectors posted by Rob Anderson on March 26, 2001 at 00:00:32:


You will need 10mm combination wrench, flat head screw driver for the hose clamp. 10mm deep socket, 10mm regular socket, medium and long length extension, you will also need a long flat head screw driver or a pry bar to pop the rail off. I would also suggest that you use a very small screw driver to remove the injector electrical connectors. BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN REMOVING THEM because they break easily.

Hi,

Am going to pull the injectors in a couple days to have them sent out and cleaned/blueprinted. As I'm at school, I had to leave all my tools at home - but as a favor, mom and dad are going to send me what I need out of my toolbox to do this since I can't make it home (4 hr drive) soon enough.

What are the sizes and types (tall/short,etc) of sockets needed to pull the rail in addition to whatever else is in the way? Anything else I should know? Any other tools needed?

Thanks

Sam
who's never done this before seeing as his tii never needed it, and the '76 '02 had a weber 38/38 on it...
