Fuel injector replacement tools needed
#11
Left(drivers)side showing what I believe is the fuel line going into the rail(just below the white electrical connector.
Left(drivers)side showing the fuel line into the left rail and the rubber hose connecting the left and right rails.
Right(passenger)side rail. Don't see any lines except for the rubber hose coming from the left side rail.
Is the one that you say does NOT come off the fuel line in the middle of the left(drivers)side rail? If so, where is/are the fuel line(s)? If not, where is the one that doesn't come off?
Thank you so much for your help so far.

Ok. Thank you! I'm gonna remove the intake, even if it's not necessary just to have more room and a better look at things(I've seen guys say it is necessary to remove the rails).

So I just saw a video on a different vehicle(Ford I think)and the dude removed the fuel pump/system fuse, then started the engine to burn off fuel in the system. Good idea or bad?
#14
It is not necessary but if you do it would be best to check the plenum and do the timing chain as its only a few more bolts

Correct. If the plenum hasn't already been done, it is highly likely past time for it to happen. (common problem.) And if you are over 100K miles, the timing chain is likely rather sloppy. Both are recommended repairs by the experts here.

Thanks to you and Hey You for the advice. Money is really tight right now, so I'm just doing the injectors.
What are your thoughts on removing the fuel pump/system fuse and running the engine until it dies, removing fuel from the lines? I've never done that before.
