Message	since it was your first time.... but it definately doesnt take an hour or two to unscrew to screws, remove the injector cap, pull it out with some pliars, put new o-rings on the new injector, cover the o-rings with petroleum jelly, press the injector down in the rail, and tighten the screws back up........
