Sheesh! Talk about luxury. When I was a boy all we had was a broken umbrella and we had to walk three miles between the tool box and the car. We had bugger all tools so we had to use our teeth instead of spanners.

Well what a nightmare this is going to be
every thing went well till I got to the injector
got it undone ok the nut slipped back
the seal all most fell out
now the trouble starts the injector pipe won't
go back far enough to let the seal come away from
the pipe
thinking ill have to strip right hand side to get to the
manifold and fuel pump

You might get away with only removing that pipe from the pump. So if you undo the clamp holding all the pipes together, then the nut holding the pipe to the injector, you may be able to manipulate the pipe out of the way. I fell for ya Roofy. Done this once, and never again will I do it. Big pain in the backside of a job.

Holy crap Roofy. Nice war wound on the finger their mate! Just remember to bleed those lines like you did when we first fired it up after the engine swap. Any air left in that pump will mean certain death to it. Well done for getting it done though mate. You have saved yourself some serious coin doing it yourself.
