    Injector washer stuck

    One of the injector washers is stuck to the head. Any ideas how to get it out?

    I was asked " Is it ignorance or apathy?" I replied "I don't know and I don't care."

    I usually use a scribe or seal hook.

    occasionally to loosen them up I'll put a long shank screwdriver down and very very gently tap the handle with a small hammer as I twist it.

    I have once used a pin punch to flatten a section of the washer enough to make it poke over the inside of the nozzle hole so I could hook it with the scribe.

    letting it sit over night with a mix of 4:1 atf/diesel will help loosen any carbon deposits that are holding it. (i poke a cotton ball into the hole before squirting a teaspoon or 2 of the oil in.)
