Default How to remove injector connectors?

Hi, new here. I've got a 95 EX and I tried searching but wasn't able to find how to disconnect the harness connectors to the injectors. I can see some type of wire on them but can't figure out how to unhook them and don't want to break any. Does anyone know what the trick is?

Thanks

the clips attached right to the injectors? There should be a harness that you should be able to just unclip and pull off. Being a 12 year old car, it might have some build-up on it and you might have to pull hard, but it should pull right off.

What I mean are the individual wire connectors that attach to the injectors. Others that I've seen have some type of a "release" tab on them but these don't and that is what has me confused as to how to get them off.

Those red connectors look like they are the same as what I have except mine are grey. Where is the release tab on them?

There may be a little metal clip on the outside of the connector. Its shaped like a square but has a split in it. You just split it a little and pull up. Not sure if your civic has that kind of connector but one of my cars does (civic or accord).

Thanks guys, got them off. Two came of pretty easy but the other two were fun, I used a flat head screw driver to push out on one of the wire clips and when I would try the other one, the first would go back! It felt like I was playing tag back in grade school or something. Appreciate the help
