   2001 1.6 VTR running a Random/multiple misfire. (p-0300)
   
   Car is running but with no specific cylinder misfire...
   
   Thus injectors need checking out.
   
   What is the best way to safely remove, check and clean the injectors/fuel rail?????
   
   Any advice appriciated

   an injector puller is the safest method but if you don't have that....
   
   PULL!!! nices and straight tho, they are a tight interference fit.

   Relise the pressure from the fuel pump first,unscrew the dust cap on end of fuel rail and it's just like letting a tyre down,and if they havnt been out before/in a while theybwill be well stuck in place so be careful not to damage them tugging too hard on them
