"Ok guys I have to disagree with DSM mike here. This isn't a 20 minute job by any means. You get the gaskets because you have to remove the intake manifold (upper portion) to access the fuel rail. If you follow the service manual they even recommend draining coolant as they recommend pulling the top radiator hose and thermostat housing. This may not be for the average person . In addition since you're removing these things I also believe a torque wrench would be needed also."


Oh, I see. It slipped my mind that you had to remove the upper intake manifold. I was refering to just replacing the fuel injectors, assuming you had access to the fuel rail. Anyway, my bad. Still, it shouldnt be too hard. Most people should be able to do it, but there is still the issue with warranty, depending on your dealership. I agree with flashbk2, about 1-2 hrs.
