Default Injector Question??

I have read about people pulling the fuel rail with the injectors in, then try to fire up the engine to see if the injectors are spraying. I have tried this but the fuel pressure just pushes the injector out. How can i make sure the injectors are actually firing???

NOTE: I think they are getting pushed out becasue they are not spraying so the pressure just builds up and pushes the injector out. Any help would be appercated!!!! Because i believe this is causing the b16 i just swapped into my buddies crx not to turnover (spark, fuel pressure and wiring is all tested and correct)

Get a clean (never to be used again) rag and put the injectors on them, have someone else try to start the car and push them on the rag. When they stop see if you see 4 gas spots.

Sounds good i will give it a try. But last time i tried this method one of the injectors was pushed out of the fuel rail as the pressure built. I think the pressure gets higher as the injectors aren't firing and they just pop out. TIA

take your spark plugs out. if the injectors are working you will smell fuell in the cyclindar, and your plugs will possibly be wet.
