its very simple. the big thing is to release the pressure from the fuel rail first. pull the fuse for the fuel pump and crank enegine over a few times this will drain the line. depending on the engine you may need to remove the plug wires or coil packs. loosen the bolts for the fuel rails and lift up bringing all the injectors with it. there is a c-clip or a plug type holding the injector to the rail carefully remove that to remove injector. some injectors may not come with the o-rings so you may need to reuse the stock one. once installed on the fuel rail lube up the o-rings with petroleum jelly or gasoline and install back into the port. reverse process from removing fuel rails. install fuse back into box and turn key but dont start the truck turn key on an off a few times to purge up the fuel system. once it has been done a few times go ahead and start truck.check for leaks at any of the points and take it for a ride. also get the injectors that have the 4 or 6 hole application they work better compared tp the factory single hole

Depends on who you ask. lol

Speaking of plugs..... I think mine are going bad. The spark is getting past the plug. From what ive read, the spark plug is not suppose to let the spark get past the plug. Is this true?? I dont want my spark to get mixed with the fuel. That could be a bad thing!
