I've been pulling and wiggling and twisting and it won't come out. Anyone encounter anything like this?

I've done it without a welder. Use two nuts, one as a jam nut on the other.

take the hold down nut loose on the injector; put somethin heavy over the injector you're planning to pop loose; cut the fuel off and crank the engine... the compression will most deffinately blow it loose. gotta love this site; always read some interesting solutions from some of the best

You MUST close the manual fuel cut off to do this, Or you will pump ALOT of fuel all over the place!

Tip may be coated in enough carbon to hang it up.

good point; do you have all the hold down nuts loose and the injectors bathing in a good penetrating oil? WD-40 or PB blaster?

i use a lug nut and 3/4 pvc 13/8 long to pull mine

i've helped a friend make a puller with a slide hammer b4... a pipe coupler is supringly close and grabs the injector w/o damamging the threads. as for the slide hammer the threads deffinately dont match... we went a little hill billy with this and wrapped abunch of black tape around it then threaded the pipe coupler over it after all it did the trick
