You should be able to prise out the securing clips which hold the rail to the injectors.

remove each clip to the front injectors

You should then be able to lift the rail enough to remove the metal fuel pipe.

You do need to remove the two nuts also holding the rail... ... but hopefully it gives you the idea, that may help.

Brilliant info.... thanks!

If I read it right, I can see now the front fuel rail can be detached and lifted off the injector rather than having to remove the whole injector(s).

And then, by removing the two front fuel rail securing bolts, it looks like there may be enough movement to allow access to that leaking O ring on the Interconnect pipe.

I've also ordered O rings for the injectors so I can renew the "top" injector O ring.

The other tip I picked up was to remove fuse 20 to isolate the fuel pump.

Thanks again, fingers crossed... lube poised, Trikey! .... and I'll update to let you know how it goes.

All I want now is a nice, heated, spacious double garage..... please...

Cheers

John
