Anyone have an idea how to injector bungs out that are stripped out? Two of them came out fine the other two just spun around and stripped right out.

If you're talking about those plastic collars that screw into the head, hmm, I've only ever used the head of a 17mm (I think its 17mm?) bolt to get them out. They can be difficult but I've never stripped one. How'd you do that (I know, I know, too late, but interesting to know...)

They're plastic so I'd think a solution would involve a blow torch, heating up a chisel or other bladed object, and sinking it into the plastic until you get some grip or cut it in half. Either way its out.

17mm hex socket is the right tool. if they are stripped, try an 18 or 19 mm. Don't drop bits of them into th ehead, the bungs are right above the intake valve...

if they are spinning round, ie stripped externally, try a little lateral pressure, sometimes that helps.

I used a 17mm socket allen the plastic crumbled. The other two came out fine. I like the chisel idea
