Went to begin the job & cannot figure out how to disconnect the fuel hose from the rail? I removed the clips that attach, but cannot pull the hose off; is there a procedure to remove the steel hose?
Go to autozone and buy a fuel line disconnect tool. They come in a small pack of different sizes. for like 5 bucks. Push the tool over the line and push in towards the clip with the tool. With the other hand push the fuel line towards the rail and it will pop right off. Put some rags underneath cause some fuel in the lines will come out
You don't need to remove the fuel line, ease the injectors out of the manifold and lay it on a cloth on the windshield. Be careful, if you pull an injector out of the fuel rail, you may get squirted with gas.
There was wine involved, more than a few mistakes, and a run to AutoZone. All told, ~5 hours including a test drive. I would say a mechanically competent person could easily do it in half that.
