If you know the difference in a wrench and a socket you can do it. LOL. It's pretty straightforward.

For my .02, Go ahead and get some new copper washers before you put them back in. Cheap, and worth the trouble.

Just a note, you do NOT have to pull the rocker arms off to get the injectors out...extra step, not necessary, and just takes up more time. I've done injectors on my 24v twice now, and never pulled the rocker arm off...

neither did i (rocker arms). hardest part is getting to the 5th and 6th injector, and thats not all that bad when you get positioned right... be clean and careful. Like they said, really not that diff. those instructions help a ton!

I thought the hardest part to be getting the valve cover off and back on... BTW the chrysler manual doesnt even mention pulling the rocker arms. I found a socket with a washer and a M 8 x 1.25 shankless bolt and nut to make a pretty good puller for those tight injectors.
