fuel rail injector retainer clips

Is there a trick to removing the sickle clips that hold the fuel injectors within the fuel rail?

I couldn't seem to figure out how to remove the clip, I don't want to tear anything up, any advice or help is appreciated

Thanks!

Do you mean the turning of them so you can remove the injectors?

That must be it. Do you rotate the injector, or clip, or both?

Thanks again.

Just the clip. There is a "longer" leg on the clip that should be up against the rail. Slide/rotate that long leg around the injector to the rail on the opposite side of the injector and then the injector should pull out (or in some cases fall out - depending on how good the o-rings are)

Does this help?
