RE: Removing injectors....

["Julie Macfarlane" <juliemac@telenet.net>]

I just used a pair of vicegrips.  I used the pliers tight on the 15" head
and levered them out, against the valve cover. remove the rubber hose to the
air intake before doing #3 & 4, makes it easier. I just redid the valve
guides on my '81, it made a huge difference.
