The injectors are easy to pull out, you need a special socket for it tho.
And when you put them back you need to replace the heat shield washer as they are only single use.

A set of refurbished injector here cost less then 300 pounds sterling. Not that bad for 6 as new injectors.

The timing isn't too bad.
The pump is hold by 3 bolts at the front and one at the back under the manifold and those need to be slacked/ loosen.

If you look above the pump just at the back of the fuel filter you'll see a little Allen type bolt sticking out. Its a 8mm.
When you turn it anti-clock wise you advance the timing.
Clockwise you retard the timing.

I am not sure how to make be sure you moved it 2 or 3 degrees tho, someone here will tell you better

Bad MAF maybe for bad MPG?
