Injector Elec contacts
Was just wanting to check out the contacts on the injectors from the loom for any signs of corrosion.
Never touched these before so wondering how they are disconnected
The back two injectors get a lot more 'weathered' than the front two and was just wondering how the contacts were holding up

Its been a problem for some owners, it leaks to a bad contact and can break the wire,A member here sold his car because of the problem, turned out it was just a broken wire.
remove and a bit of electrical contact grease will solve the issue,

small flat head screw driver, looking at the connector near the rear of it, there is a hope, put flat head in there, turn 90degs and you will hear it pop, then slowly pull injector plug off, pretty simple once you do one of them.

No you don't need to, if the car is off and not running, no power is going to the injectors
