Trying to remove an injector that is firmly stuck into place can be a challenging task, and it might just be impossible without the proper tools. If you don't have the proper tools, the injector and cylinder head can both be damaged beyond repair, quickly escalating the scope and cost of the repair. A stuck injector can be caused by the build-up of carbon or the effects of water ingress, leading to the injector fusing with the aluminium cylinder head. This can occur in less than 30,000 miles in some cases.
