While riding a few days ago my machine lost power and I had to keep pushing and releasing the throttle to keep the engine running. The engine began backfiring while doing this. I loaded the ATV onto a trailer to take it back to the cabin where I replaced the spark plug and ensured the fuel pump was working. I added a little Heat to the fuel just in case  there was some water in the fuel but the three other ATV’s with me were using the same fuel and they ran fine. This was no help so I removed the fuel line and added some carburetor cleaner a to the fuel rail and turned the key a few times and let it soak for a few minutes. I did this several times and the engine began running “normal”.  I rode it a little and it lost power again. 
I suspect the fuel injector is partially clogged. I’ve always used ethanol free gas but I’ve never added a fuel injector cleaner.
I attempted to remove the fuel injector. I removed the two bolts attaching the fuel rail assembly and pulled up on the assembly but the injector will not come out of the engine.
What am I doing wrong?
