Any suggestions on removal of an unruley 466E end rail plug that does not want to budge? Heat? Tryed just about everything else. Gotta remove the injectors, I suppose just removeing the HP line to the rail will not suffice.

When they are leaking they are easy to remove.

Some heavy duty strikes with a hammer did it before I screwed up the "square" fitting.

Some of the heavy duty loctite used on these type of plugs does reduce its holding power with heat.

1/2" square drive IMPACT adapter and the IR235 wrench that goes with it.

If you want customer service, you NEED an International!
