93 300D cant budge fuel injector
 
I'm trying to change a leaky fuel injector in my 1993 300D, and it just wont budge.

Any tips?

You might try to remove it HOT. The other solution is to soak it with a penetrant for a few days or if it is running, hit it with the penetrant when it is hot. I have used a product called KROIL. It is a industrial type penetrant. If you are going to CHANGE out the injector, after you put penetrant on it, TAP the sides of the injector with a ball-peen hammer. This sets up vibrations that helps the penetrant to seep in. One other way that I have used sometimes is to get a 6 point deep socket that fits the injector and use a half inch impact wrench. GET THE BIG GUNS OUT:eek:
