Hi

I'm learning the ropes as far as mechanical concerns go here and I need some opinions. My 93 Maxima SE just had an injector die. According to the guide here http://www.nicoclub.com/articles.php?id=158298 this is a fairly intensive process.

I've done things like breaks, regular maintainance, electrical stuff, and other intro work. However, this would be my first real project. It involves taking off the whole intake plenum etc to get at the injectors. Is this something at my level?

Secondly, is it harmful to the car to run it without a cylinder firing? I heard it can cause the piston to 'flop' around and damage the walls.
