ahh, they aren't THAT bad to remove. ya'll are gettin worked up for nothing. get a 1/4" drive socket, u-joint, extension and ratchet and get it done. as for pulling the injectors...what is so hard about PULLING? thats all you do to remove these...once the VC is off, you pull them out. that's not hard at all. then put the o-ring on and re-install 'em. i am betting that's your problem as well. how much does it smoke in the morning? if it smokes for more than a city block or so, then your o-rings are definitely bad. but judging by the rubber in the filter housing, yea, they're bad. you might try cleaning your FPR screen as well. also might have a bad VC wiring harness. it has connections for the GP's and for the Injectors...if one is shorting, you won't get full voltage to that injector...can't really think of much else...although i'm sure something will come to me later on
good luck!
