  19. Disconnect the fuel injector wiring harness electrical connectors from the fuel injectors.
  20. Remove the fuel rail bolts (1).
  21. NOTE: Carefully remove the fuel rail. The fuel injectors may come out of the cylinder head with the fuel rail.
    NOTE: A fuel injector may remain stuck in the cylinder head. If this occurs, complete the following steps:
  22. Carefully remove the fuel rail (2).
    1. Remove the fuel injector hold-down clamp before removing the fuel injector.
      NOTE: Use the injector remover and slide hammer to pull the fuel injector straight out along the fuel injector axis. DO NOT tilt or twist the fuel injector during this process.
    2. Use J-37281-A:  injector remover, and J 2619-01:  hammer to remove the fuel injector.
    3. Once injectors have been removed it will be necessary to clean and rebuild all the injectors. Refer to Fuel Rail and Injectors Cleaning and Inspection .
