Default Injector Replacement

How hard is it to change out an injector? What do I need to do to insure that I dont damage the injector on install? Suggestions.

Pretty easy. Pop off the connectors from the injector harness and use your fingers or a small flat blade to get the metal injector retaining clips off the tops of the injectors. Take off the nuts that secure the fuel rails to the manifold (and decide if you want/need to disconnect the fuel lines (be careful with fuel, and make sure you have/use a quick disconnect tool)) and start pulling them out (some of them might be a bit tight). When installing the new ones use some lube (Racetronix injectors come with it) to help getting them in. Repeat the steps from above backwards and that's it, yer done.

I plan on pulling them and replacing some when I can check the voltage out. I have blown the left blank injector fuse, so hopefully after eliminating the wiring it will just be a bad injector.
