Another tool(s) that may be needed, or at least helpful (IF) you are replacing with new injectors/seals are the seal install tools. These allow you to get the seals positioned correctly to install. Again, there may be other options, but this would be preferred...

Good explanation here -

[QUOTE=Therock88;2424673]No matter what mileage you have, you need to use the injector puller tool. No reason to risk creating issues you do not need to. Tool is a simple slide hammer fitted for these injectors.

I picked mine up off of Amazon. Let me know if you can't find one and I can just mail you mine, hopefully I won't need it again anytime soon! (feel like I just jinxed myself)

Also, you don't need the seal kit if you're buying brand new injectors, the injectors come with everything that you need except for the metal retaining clips. Those can be reused from your old injectors with a little bit of work.

Amazon Germany nothing, what is looking as your's... Is this tool good for pulling out the old one, or an installation help for the new one?

Lucas fuel injector treatment will help clean the fuel injectors. These injectors don't necessarily break, they just get stuck open
Do you mean Redline SI-1? I can see WMI helping clean the intake valves but no fuel additive will ever see anything other than the combustion chamber face.

Water methanol injection system. Best cooling modification for the car but it requires some permanent changes (drilling holes in the upper intake manifold). Typically wouldn’t be done until youve modded the car (tune, pulley(s), cats)

@Andi Jaguar G yes, that's the tool that you will need. It helps tremendously with pulling the injectors out. You will also need a Torx T30 bit and a short ratchet in order to reach the bolts on the coil pack. The thread located below has a good list of items needed and pictures to help with removal of the parts.
