Is there a knack to getting to injectors out the manifold or do I need to man up?

it's just the injector seals and the little clips that hold them in. i've never really had an issue getting them out, i just wiggle them side to side but you'll most likely need new injector seals

Cheers, got them out now, seals look ok... Worth leaving them or not really?

you'll soon know if they start spraying or leaking when you fire it back up. sods law will be they will be ruined and you'll have no new seals to hand. or you'll have new seals and the old ones will be fine. swings & roundabouts

Bit of petroleum jelly smeared around the rim allows you to shove right in with no drama.

    Mr Injector does seals cheaply. Be careful, the seals at the top often get pinched and split when refitting the fuel rail.
