Took my intercooler and throttle body off, but got stuck at the manifold. Got all the bolts on the manifold and the EGR intake manifold bolts. Turns out I need to undo the EGR bolts at the exhaust manifold at the back to get the intake manifold out
However, trying to get those damn diesel injector lines out has been a right pain. And I've ended up touching the nozzle on the gunk so there's no way I'm connecting them back to the new injectors as is. I'm gonna order some new ones but they will take weeks. So first questions

2. How can I clean them? I was thinking some degreaser, then some fresh diesel and then air pressure through them. Otherwise I might take them to a shop
3. Does anyone have the part numbers? Cos amayama doesn't seem to recognise that some 120s have a 1kzte, and the 90 series is slightly different in the diagrams - doesn't have the centre clamp. Don't want to order ones that won't fit past the manifold - it looks like these, can anyone confirm? https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-c...41/engine/2202
Also, I have an EGR block plate, I was gonna put it in at the intake manifold section, is that better than the exhaust manifold section?
The diesel pump is disconnected from the lines at the moment, and probably will be for a while - is this bad? And will I be alright to just prime the pump at the filter and push any air and diesel out of the lines? I'm gonna run a diesel cleaner through it soon cos the tank has had that diesel in it for about 4 months now
