Quick fuel injector swap question ?
I'm sure the answer is somewhere on the forum so I'll go ahead and apologize but I've got to open for black friday and I'm sick; bad.
I am just wondering if there are any special tools you need to take off the fuel injectors on 90 gxl n/a ?
I'm hoping to pick some I found up for cheap and see if it helps at all with my warm flooding problems and maybe fixes some of my gas milage problems.
Also; how long/frustrating of a job is this?
Thanks, and feel free to flame me for not searching for eight hours.
*I did do a quick search but couldn't find what I was looking for.

You will need to remove the upper manifold to access the injectors.so If you can,Prepare to get the gasket.
Injectors should be repace with new Orings,grommets,and spacers..(www.injector-rehab.com cost about 18 bucks TOPS/).If you are Putting in another set.make sure they are KNOWN working and Not leaking..OR Clean..That always helps.

+1 for replacing all o-rings, grommets, gaskets & hoses while you're under there. If you're going to go through the trouble of taking the manifold off, replacing the rubber parts will save you the hassle down the road. Besides, if the fuel hoses are old, they will leak if you try to re-use them.

Okay thanks guys; If I get this I'll go ahead and send off the injectors to get cleaned and order the parts that you say I should go ahead and replace.
