Real labor time is involved and approximate fair labor only charge for Memphis tn. Running rough and after was put on engine analyzer and told that number 8 injector specifically needs replacing. Had already changed maf sensor as a earlier step. Had read that number 8 injector is much easier labor wise to change out than most of the others. 74000 is the correct current mileage is do it yourself on this paticular location i.jector simple or highly involved in steps to replace? Thanks

They can be a pain, replacement costs should be about 180.00. You have to remove the fuel rail to get the injector out. What happens is there are rubber O-rings that can fall out, break, or are just worn. I would recommend you replace them if you do the job.
