I'll be swapping my injectors pretty soon, so been following up on some research.
Question is: 'Can I get to my injectors without removing the valve cover or intake?' Eventhough I can see the injector wires it doesn't seem like I could, since there isn't a whole lot of room. BOTH the 'Haynes Manual (Celica)' and the BGB (MR2) indicate that the rail can be lifted behind everything. The only source I've found that states the valve cover needs to be removed is: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=3421&hl= ...and I know Bryan knows his stuff This post has been edited by erics1one: Feb 28, 2005 - 12:48 PM --------------------  |

Good luck trying w/o removing. It can be done but the 2 bolts you need to unscrew to remove the rail will be a huge PITA if you leave the valve cover there. Taking the valve cover off is simple, 4 big nuts and a thump of the rubber mallet and its off.
