im trying to replace fuel injectors on my 95, but im having a really hard time loosening up the two phillip screws that holds the cap on top of the injectors. it looks simple enough, but the suckers won't budge. i've tried lubricant, using a long ass phillip screwdriver, but so far no luck. it's really in there. ne advice.

Hey how about I sell you my fuel rail from my 95?  I replaced mine with the JWT upgrade, so I have 4 300sx injectors and my OE fuel rail to get rid of.

it has two phillip screws that holds a retainer on each injectors. oh, and thanks for the offer on the injectors and fuel rail, but i have four 300zx injectors myself. gwong, what type of o-ring did you use on the injectors? (240 or 300)

Buy a &quot;hand impact driver&quot; from Sears or whatever. They work wonders on stubborn phillips head screws; and pretty cheap, too.

vise grips, you are going to shred the screw to pieces but what the ####, you will get the caps off. &nbsp;just replace the screws with bolts with the same length.

the screws on my number 1 injector totally stripped and I had to slot them with a dremmel and use a standard to get them out.

This is one of the best tools ever invented in my opinion:

It gets out those screws without having to slot them with a dremel <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
