With the engine running or cranking, listen to the sound from each injector with an automotive stethoscope and verify the injectors are all clicking the same. If you don't have a stethoscope, place the tip of as crew driver against the injectors and press your ear against the handle of the screwdriver. Also feel the operation of each injector with your finger. It should sound/feel smooth and uniform and its sound/feel should rise and fall with engine RPM. If an injector isn't operating, or sounds/feels erratic check the injector connector and the wire electrical connector. If the connectors are snug, check for voltage to the injector, using a special injector harness test light (available at most auto parts stores).

First remove the air cleaner assembly and relieve the fuel system pressure. Disconnect the negative battery cable and remove the fuel pressure regulator if necessary. Remove the Torx screw and carefully pry off the injector cap. Use a small screwdriver to gently pry the injector from the throttle body. Peel off the upper and lower O-rings from the injector, making sure to retrieve the lower O-ring if it is not on the injector.

Remove the throttle body and the three Torx head screws that attach the fuel body to it. Discard the original gasket and install a new one.

Start by relieving the fuel pressure and disconnecting the battery cable. Remove the air intake duct/resonator from the air filter housing and throttle body. Use a special tool to remove the fuel line from the fuel rail and label and remove any interfering vacuum hoses or electrical wiring and connectors. On 2.4L four-cylinder engines, drain the coolant, remove the thermostat, injector wiring, PCV valve, and intake manifold bolts. On V6 engines, disconnect electrical connectors from the throttle body, remove ignition coils, and intake manifold (4.0L engines). Clean around the injectors and remove the fuel rail mounting nuts/bolts, then gently rock the fuel rail to remove it along with the injectors as an assembly.

On V6 models, do not separate the left and right fuel rails, as both sides are serviced together. Remove the injectors from the fuel rail, discard the O-rings, and replace them with new ones coated in clean engine oil. Clean the injector bores on the intake manifold and insert the injectors into their corresponding bores in the fuel rail. Securely tighten the fuel rail mounting nuts/bolts, connect the fuel line(s), and ensure they are properly seated. Connect the electrical connectors to each injector, following numbered tags if present.
