    I have a 2001 optimax and I think I have a bad fuel injector, my rpm is 5 grand wot. I probably need to take it to the shop and have them look at it. My question is would it to much trouble changing out the fuel injector myself ??

    Not that hard to change one... knowing which one to change (and accurately determining the health of the other 11 injectors, as well as the fuel rails) is the hard part.
