An Easy Injector Puller

Original Write Up By Pred

OK. here is what i have. I had tried to remove the injector with vice grips, wiggiling, I didn't have a slap hammer, So i decieded to make a tool to remove the injector easially. I used a 3/4" piece of black pipe (gas line), That cut to 3 1/2", Having a nice shoulder to sit against the head,

I ran a nut to the top of the bolt, and slid on two thick washers to act as the pulling device, before welding the metric nut on. I then welded a metric nut (dont know the exact size) (but it is the same size as the injector threads)to a 7/16 bolt X 3" all threaded, Then i needed to grind the edges of the metric bolt so it would fit into the 3/4" black pipe,

Here is a referance to how it looks with just the bolt on an injector

So i then have this little package

I placed the NEW TOOL, onto the injector, threaded it onto the injector

Then wound the loose nut down the threads of the bolt using the orange wrench to hold the assy bach from tightening onto the injector and causing damage

It was so very easy to do, a five year old could have would this out, and the injector came out nice and straight and easy

Part of the reason why i made this tool is that i would have to remove the hood to use a slap hammer on cylinders 5+6
These parts can be gotten at homedepo for just a couple of dollars, And i think it took me about 20 min to make. I hope that this can be of service to a few of you out there who can utilize this method to remove your stubborn injectors!!! Like Butter!
