Injector swap in the cold?
Can I swap my injectors out outside in the cold? It is -20*C here. Will it mess up the o-rings?

worked for me
I swapped out all mine when it was freezing out ... no problems.
Just took off the fuel rail as well ... plugged in the new ones and put back on the rail.
However, in the process my vacuum hose broke ... so I had to get a replacement.
While you are at it -- might want to upgrade to the new (4) hole design as my 1992 Cherokee still had the stock single hole design of injectors.

Edit: How cold was it?
