Is there an easy way of removing injectors from my car without an injector tool? From what I remember of doing my old engine I stuggled like f*ck to take them out..
Plus side injector seals were £6.40 for 4 from pug
MG ZR TD+ - gone and easily forgotten

27mm draper deep socket is about 6 quid on ebay . . . .you'll want to use a breaker bar as well . .

FYI Halfords 27mm normal deep socket works fine, plenty deep enough and never broken any leak off tabs.

The halfords one by me was useless aswell. Different ones must stock different injector sockets
