5. Operating Instructions: Fuel Injector Removal

Follow these steps for safe and efficient fuel injector removal:

1. Prepare the Vehicle: Ensure the engine is cool. Disconnect the battery. Relieve fuel system pressure according to the vehicle manufacturer's instructions.
2. Access Injectors: Remove any components obstructing access to the fuel injectors (e.g., engine cover, intake manifold, fuel lines, electrical connectors).
3. Attach Puller: Select the correct adapter for the injector. Securely attach the puller head to the injector. Ensure the adjustable jaws firmly grip the injector body.
4. Use Slide Hammer: With the puller securely attached, use the slide hammer to gently and progressively pull the injector from its bore. Apply steady, controlled force. Avoid sudden, jerky movements that could damage the injector or surrounding components.
5. Remove Injector: Once the injector is loose, carefully extract it from the engine.
6. Inspect and Clean: Inspect the injector bore for debris or carbon buildup. Clean as necessary before installing new or reconditioned injectors.
