I have never changed one myself but if its replacable it will unscrew.You will just need a valve core tool to unscrew it.

Sometimes the valve gets damaged removing it, its possible that the fuel rail may have to be.swapped out these are relatively inexpensive and not hard to replace

thank you. I have done a little more research and have found that you can remove the core, and not the whole valve. Do you guys know what size of core it would be? and where i could find these at?
