n55 fuel injector removal

Anyone know how to remove this without a tool? Or do I have to use the tool? If I have to use the tool, does anyone in la area have one I can borrow plus cash?

Nvm, I made my own tool. Get an m12x1.50 bolt, the longer the better, washer, wrench and a m12x1.50 extended nut. Twist nut onto injector, put washer into bolt,then wrench into bolt, twist bolt onto nut and slowly tap it out. See image.

If you exceed 6nm of vertical force removing the injector, you've ruined it and need to replace it. The body of the injector is weak and with 2500psi traveling through it it can be compromise and potential fail and spray high pressure fuel onto the engine.
