So just a quick update. Before ordering the parts I wanted to verify that it was indeed the injectors stuck open and took my borescope to it. What I saw was fuel steadily dumping into the cylinder with the ignition in accessory mode. After that I ordered the parts. In between then my daughter was born and have been playing catch up. lol
Got the manifold off and replaced all the plugs and injectors. COP boots came out looking great as I was worried about those possibly tearing from what I've read. I will say this TL13 was right about the manifold being stuck on by the coolant passage gaskets that was a pain as was trying to remove those gaskets
but not nearly as much as trying to remove those spring clips and the coolant hoses were stuck on just as tight as the manifold gaskets. Other than those things I was surprised that everything could be taken apart with a 1/4" if you wanted to and that everything was pretty much the same torque (89 in/lb). Previous cars I've worked on were a lot tighter. All in all though not a bad experience. Just have to finishing putting all the intake tubes back on, suck the cac out, drain and fill the coolant, and drain and fill the oil.
