    yes assuming you unbolted it first! unless its been off fairly recently the injector seals are probably stuck to it, so wriggle it up and down to try and break it free, otherwise it will probably take a lot of pulling then suddenly go, bringing a couple of injectors with it, and probably pulling the seal retainers off the rest of the injectors.

    And ideally ensure it's de-pressurised first, or hold rags etc around everything so fuel doesnt spray everywhere when taking it apart.
