OK I have managed to remove the pipes without breaking anything yet and even managed to keep hold of the clip!..However it's a right mess in there, I take it there is two bolts there somewhere that I need to find holding the injector in? Can I use degreaser to help?

Yeah you've got a real mess on your hands there. It's going to be very tight because the combustion gasses have surrounded the injector with carbon. WD 40 and lots of it and twist the injector until it loosens. More WD40/ brake cleaner and keep twisting with an upwards pull. Once it starts to lift ease up on the lubricants as you don't want it draining into the cylinder.

You just have to keep at it until it gives, which it will.....eventually

Use a flat blade screwdriver to scrape the mess out
And yeah. 2 Bolts somewhere. As you can see in the one on the left

The git still wont budge

after a night of wd40 & Carb cleaner. Can you hit them with a hammer on the fuel connector? or is this a bad idea.

Hammer is a bad idea

The puller will get it (maybe)

The puller should get it out. Mine was tight all the way and I managed to bend the little legs that guide it up. Brake cleaner and a screwdriver to clean as much of that gunk out of the way. If the injector bore needs cleaning I use a bit of threaded rod with a slit in the end to accept a length of emery paper. Fix into a drill and gently clean out the bore. 2004 Disco 3 HSE TDV6
