My neighbor has a '97 T-bird w/ a 4.6 and cylinders 1 and 2 injectors are "supposed" to to be bad any special tools needed to R&R them? (Injectors are already purchased)

I don't know anything other than it has some drivabilty issues; She said that that it's sputtering/ cutting out, she had code pulled at autozone and was told misfire on 1 and 2 (IIRC she just had a tune up done as well as 2 other injectors)

Thats all I know at the moment, will update as I learn more..

I wish I'd looked at the mod motors a little closer...but if it's anything like these old fuel injected engines...you bleed the pressure via schrader valve...unbolt the rail and pull it off the top of the injectors then just pull them out.

I ran mine over once with an excavator...the ground was soft enough that it didn't do anything but put ridges in the rubber...and yes, here's to hoping..sorry i couldn't be of more help!

Well the easiest thing to do is go look at it...
On my truck i would give it 4 stars out of 10 on difficulty...
Not quite cake, but still pretty simple.
The passenger side jumps to a 7 due to having to pull the upper intake plenum... Which is a pain...
