Take a screwriver and wedge it under the rail. Gently pry upward on the rail and they should pop out.

Wow, I went out there and gave it all I got. The first one pulled out ok after soaking half an hour in oil. The second I had to pry and it launched a few feet. Still can't find it!! LOL!! The remaining won't budge. The fuel rail is off. I tried pliers, levering it with a bar off the valve cover, etc. There's like a ton of crap, sludge whatever in the holes, I assume due to leaking valve covers.

hmm.can you spin them? and are you going to reuse them? if not, get some vice grips and lock em on there, not really tight, but tight enough to give you some leverage to spin them. try to twist em and angle them so they pop out

They spin real easy. I was going to take them to work, clean em, flow them, etc. i'd like to reuse them if they clean up an balance within a few percent of each other. This sux!!
