Replace Fuel InjectorDepressurize

Hey guys I’m back. Once again thx for all the tremendous help. This site has been a blessing.
So my question is I need to replace injectors 3&4 . Would love to replace them all but money is tight at the moment .
Is it possible to loosen the fuel rail up just a little with out taking it all the way off and pull old injectors off and put new on. Ive watch guys on YouTube. But the pull the whole rail off both sides just to replace 1 injector.
Also is there a procedure I need to do before and after.
I except fuel to leak on to me which is fine I don’t mond getting my hands dirty.
But some say u have to Depressurize the fuel rail . So I’m not sure or no one has gave me some clear instructions.
So please be informative
thx u all for the help from all members that have replied to help me.

One way to depressurize the fuel system without getting sprayed is to pull the fuel pump fuse and start the vehicle.
When it stalls or won’t start, fuel System should be depressurized.

Now, how did you determine that injectors 3 & 4 need replacing?
If money be tight, I’d just swap them with cylinders 1 & 2 and see if the problem follows.

THEN decide if they need replacing.
