WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 GMC Safari and 2003 Chevrolet Astro. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION: Use care in removing the fuel injectors to prevent damage to the electrical connector terminals. The fuel injector is serviced as a complete assembly only. Also since the injectors are electrical components, these injectors should not be immersed in any type of liquid solvent or cleaner as damage may occur. Fuel injector cleaning is not recommended.
  1. Remove fuel meter body assembly. See FUEL METER BODY ASSEMBLY & INJECTORS  .
  2. Remove injector retainer lock nuts and injector assembly retainer. See Fig 1 . While pulling downward on injector tube, push down between injector terminals using a small tip punch until injector is removed.
