Default Injector replacement

I'm about to remove the intake manifold to replace the rake. While I'm at it I'm thinking about replaceing the injectors. I already have a remanufactured set on hand because at least one is missing bad. So my thoughts were to replace them all. What problems could I anticipate when replacing and is this a good idea or not?

Certainly would appreciate sharing your thoughts and experience.

THOROUGHLY VACUUM the intake, do the injectors have orings and pintle caps? Spray a little lube like crc or wd40 around the injectors, other than that, just work them out, some might come out with the fuel rail, be careful if you have any cracked orings on the old injectors so nothing falls into the intake. If you are also removing the lower intake figure on an oil change.
