Welcome. To change the fuel injector, you will need to remove the fuel metering body. This is located under the upper intake manifold.

Relieve the fuel system pressure.
Remove the upper intake manifold assembly.
Remove the fuel meter body assembly (1).
Remove the injector assembly retainer (4) and the injector retainer lock nuts (2).
Notice: Use care in removing the fuel injectors to prevent damage to the electrical connector terminals.
The fuel injector is serviced as a complete assembly only.

Also since the injectors are electrical components, these injectors should not be immersed in any type of liquid solvent or cleaner as damage may occur. Fuel injector cleaning is not recommended.

While pulling the injector tube downward, push with a small tip punch down between the injector terminals until the injector (3) is removed.
