Removing intake manifold without resealing injectors?

I've done a couple manifolds and not replaced the seals. Haven't had injectors come out of the head though, I hear that matters. Use some silicone spray or a little oil on the o-rings before you put it back together.
My best advice is to watch the harnesses...one on the water pump tends to get snagged and can tear when you pull the manifold. I had to buy a pigtail on ebay.
And when you reassemble, there are a couple harnesses that are easy to forget. If you get a CEL, a quick search will show you what's unplugged.
