Before you tackle this job do a search here.
This job can be a PITA with the motor in the car.
The inserts may be very brittle. They may crumble when you try to pull them out. The factory stakes them in with 3 punch marks around the opening. Even though the insert material is a phenolic-type plastic, you should be careful to keep broken bits from getting into the motor.
There is a thin o-ring that seals the insert; don't forget to install it.
Use Dow-Corning silicone paste (*not* sealant) to install the inserts as well as the new injector o-rings.
