Greetings,
Looking to replace the boots on my injectors and MPS connector and i have a somewhat large kit of pin removal tools thanks to Amazon but what does the one I need look like and does it enter from the connector side or the wire side? It's just hard to get in and get a good look to figure it out. Same question for the 4 pins on the MPS....thanks! |

I literally just did this two weeks ago with the same Amazon tool.
Use the biggest one that fits, I ended up using one side of a double pronged one - pretty much a trial and error until you find the one it likes... They were still being stubborn until I sprayed some lube down there and gave it a few minutes - that helped immensely. The Amazon tool is stamped from really thin gauge, so on some I had to slide one in, and then slide another on top to get the tang depressed enough (but maybe that stopped after I was lubing? I don't remember). Definitely a fiddly job if you are doing it under-hood - getting the connectors installed with the new boots is too! Scott |
