Disconnect the metal fuel rail and pull it off the rubber. Use a rag to collect the gas that will drip out. Unbolt the injector from the intake manifold and you can remove it.

Cut off the old hose and replace it. Very simply procedure just be careful not to cut into the injector barbs and use proper 7mm high pressure fuel hose. The new hose will be very hard to put on. That's a good sign.

Replace any rubber orings that are cracked.
