Need help in L.A.

Ok, I'm a bit 'skeered' to start this injector project. For those Z owners in the L.A. area, what would it take to coerse you to come help me replace an injector (or two... ) in Granada Hills (near Northridge)? Pizza? Beer? Both? $50? I work at Fry's and can get some good discounts and sometimes an additional 30% if the item is disco- I got my last amp for $47. I can get you cheap electronics or use some of my discount! hehe. I'm low budget right now and just looking for some expertise... let me know if/when you can..... thanks y'all

yeah, Woody, thanks for the input yesterday. I'll cehck my PM CanyonCarver. I got it running again, just on 4 cylinders after I re-seated my fuel temp sensor. Reset the ECU, and got detonation and injector. So i have a dead injector for sure. After pulling coil plugs to see which one made a difference or not, I narrowed it down to the two front cylinders on the passenger side. From what I see on the forums, it doesn't look like the two worst ones to change out...?

OH... I ran a tankful of fuel injector cleaner two days before this happened. Did I kill my injectors?

Crap.

Just remembered that.

Just a followup - I took my car to Precision Z here in the SFV and discovered the two rear injectors were shot. $150 each and some serious labor, I am now running strong with a $790 bill. If you have the time and an extra vehicle, it pays to do it yourself, if not, the guys over there do great work and diagnose quickly.

On the road again.....

oh yeah.
