faulty injector or excessive corrosion?

i had to scrape the junk off of the injector terminals to even complete the circuit to check resistance and when i did, it was within spec. the cylinder would fire on a cold start and then die after a few minutes.
i'm contemplating cleaning all terminals and see if it fixes the problem. what would you all do?

if it starts initially, I don't think that cleaning the terminals will solve your problem(it's a very nice thing to do anyways). I would probably check you water temp sensor....good luck.

I always say :
start with obvious, you'd be amazed at what it fixes
