    well I know 3.4 vs 4.0 is a big difference but given that nobody else has contributed anything I bet you probably have to, at lease you have to on the 4.0

    How did this go for you? Did you have to take the intake off? Were you getting the ole misfire code with the engine running like crap? If so I am going through the same thing now. What brand injector did you go with and where did you pick it up from? Thanks.

    The injectors mount into the manifold.

    You will have to remove the upper and lower intake connectors to access that fuel rail.
