Default Just make sure the O-ring is seated well and get ready for a little fuel spillage...

its pretty straight forward....I think there's 2 screws holding the fuel rail in and then it all just lifts out.Oh there's little clips that hold in the injectors. Have fun!

Default A little advice . . .

1. Before beginning, have towels ready to soak up the residual fuel leak;
2. (optional) spray a tiny little bit of WD-40 or other light lubricant into the area between the bottom fuel injector seal "O-ring" and the engine to make it easier to dislodge the injector;
3. When re-installing, lubricate "O-rings" with motor oil to prevent tearing;
4. When you re-start the engine check the fuel injectors for leaking at the "o-rings".
