Default injectors

How hard are they to do by yourself? Or should I have a shop do them? Any input will help thanks

If you don't break the ball and spring that holds the timing pad off they aren't hard but I always recommend they be swapped out by a shop that has the proper tools and to have them benched as you never know when a solenoid is going to be bad or possibly a nozzle.

Saving a few bucks now can easily cost you a lot of bucks down the road with common rail engines. Where are you located at?

I agree with this I had mine benched when we swapped them you already have them out lots of peace of mind. its easy enough to do yourself but as stated i'd just have a shop do it and test it

Plus if they go bad down the road you have someone else to blame other than yourself...
