It's pretty straight forward.

Most of the time on mine was cleaning,painting,polishing stuff.

Start on Saturday morning...finish Saturday afternoon or Sunday.

I dont know if your 1992 is set up like my 1994,but mine was really easy to replace.There is only four bolts that hold your fuel rails on and after you remove them you just pull the rails out of your intake.

Definately more to remove and replace... Runners, TB, Plenum, then injectors... but all in all, not too bad

I'm getting ready to do the same on my '85. I haven't looked into the details in my shop manual yet, but I'm assuming that I'll need (1) gasket for the throttle body and (4) for the runners. Right?

Are there other items to replace/check while I have the plenum out?

Also check my other post on my cold start issues.

Thanks,

Ryan
