How do I pull off the injector plugs?

New to the 2UZ, need to pull off the connectors on the injectors, don't want to break them.... help?

There is a bolt for each. Remove that. They do kind of stick due to the rubber boot. Reach as low as possible and give a firm, consistent pull and they should come free.

Are you talking about the injectors or the coils?

My bad. I was talking about coil packs.

Like all Toyota electrical connectors you need to depress the "tongue" of the connector while pulling the connector apart. The fuel injector connectors, just like the Knock Sensor connectors and just about every other connector on or in close proximity to the engine, will get bake hardened. Fortunately you can source just the plastic connector and its easy to renew/replace.

Thanks... that's what I was expecting but didn't want to mess up the injector itself by doing it wrong. I'll give it another go.
