Default Service engine, Fuel injectors???

Service engine light is back on, guy at Autozone said it was running lean on port 1 and 2. He said it would be the injectors, they cost $65.00 each, guess I should change all of them while I'm changing!!!! How hard a job is that, any help would be appreciated!!! Thanks Guys. Got a 01 6cyl auto with 152000 miles. FLASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would put a fuel pressure gauge on before doing any purchases.

Putting an awful lot of trust in the Zone techie's ability to diagnose a code. My experience has been to be happy if they can get the test equipment connected properly.

For almost $400, I suggest to be doggone sure the injectors are the problem - hard to believe 6 would be near failure at the same time.

One stray line-of-thought is that if your feedback system were at fault, sending an erroneous lean signal- and the computer has enriched the mixture to a given limit - the fault could be with the feedback and not an actual problem.

Default Save some money

If you need injectors go here::http://www.accurateis.com/
They will rebuild the injectors you have for $25 dollars each. I turned a friend at work onto this place and he told me they do a excellent job,
