I chased the same demon for years! I know the frustration.
Can't help but noticing that you didn't wait for the weekend but tore in on Thursday (probably after work or called in sick because it was driving you nuts, didn't you?).

I know the feeling.

Actually I drove the car yesterday.. I figured i would R&R the Injectors last night after kids went to bed.. this way if nice weather today or tomorrow or Sunday I can drive it around the block.. I should know rather quick if there is an issue.

It is not driving me nuts, but I am baffled.. most who have FIC injectors have no issues, why do I, then now knowing you have FIC on a 94, says the injectors should work fine/ fit fine. I am hoping the one leaker was the root to the fuel issues

but I am very pessimistic about that being the problem

At least I know the car runs great with Multecs and the only change is injectors so it is narrowed down

I think it was one leaker.
Once installed, your saga, I am resonably sure, will end.

I have been keeping track of your experience here. I know mine in the 92 will need replacing as when checking the spark plugs 1 plug was wet, due to a leaker. The car runs fine no backfire and idles smooth. I have a set of the NOS stainless that will go in-sometime-.
