hi folks,
am having a knowledge issue with the injector lines coming from the IP...
There is two nuts on the line fitting that comes from the injector pump, ie, the fittings on top of the injector pump, a 22mm and 17mm.
Does this fitting unscrew? That's why there is two nuts there right, to uncouple them?

Wrong!
The top cap like nut fastens/seals the pipe to the lower section.
That lower section is a sleeve arrangement which screws into the inj pump body and holds the Injector pumping element in place. DON'T unscrew it.
The top one can be undone with a close fitting open end spanner which has sufficient thickness not to flex and round
the nut. OR use a heavy section, pipe ring spanner, which will provide enough grip to allow loosening to happen while you hold the lower with similar tools.
