Just got an email back from the injector guys, 24 hr turn around, and 15.00 per injector. Is that a good deal?

Craby, do they just pull out of the intake?

Is there a way to check for my leakers?

yep, once the bolts are out they will pull out. i use a tool for taking out plastic push in retainers to help get the injectors out, it has a opening at the end and is bent just about right to get in there and give the injector a little push from under it. once you get the rack out leave it hooked up and cycle the key so the fuel punp comes on. i put some small squares of cardboard under each injector so i could see if any were leaking or stuck open. the flow can not be tested like this, just lets you know if any are stuck or leaking. when i sent mine in to be tested and cleaned a couple were not flowing enough, one was shot. it caused the other cylinders to run rich.

Hey guys, I pulled my injectors out today. NONE leaked. So I did something dangerous, I had some one spin the engine over to check if the all where spraying.......did 4 at a time. And they are????
So, I guess my next question is what else will make the driver side flood....the only code is the map sensor low vaccum. Freaking eletronics!!!

you can not determine the flow rate that way. unless they are tested you will never know if they are all flowing the same.

Ok. So before I pull them out again, is there anything else that will cause 1 side to flood? Will O2 sensor cause this?
