Yes but ;
Mre often there's a *tiny* leak in the hose and the Diesel dribbles down the injector body & puddles up right where the two halves come to - gether .
You'll need a 17MM open end or crow foot wrench to loosen the fuel pipe then a deep 27MM socket and a l-o-n-g flex handle to both break the old injector loose and to properly tighen up the new or rebuilt one .
