Second Fuel Injector Failure

With help from some members I replaced #5 Fuel Injector last week, car ran great until today. I have a 92 GXE with almost 93,000 miles.
Today after running on 5 cylinders again, I find #4 injector with an open winding, just like #5 was. Is there anything that can be causing this? or should I expect to have to change all injectors shortly? Am I fooling myself doing them as they fail, or should I spring for 5 more injectors now? At least I feel comfortable in doing the repair, but cut hands from hose clamps still having healed!

Re: Second Fuel Injector Failure

You should expect all the injectors to fail. I would just reccomend changing them all at the sametime. Even though you pay more than you want, the labor charge is still the same. I'm just glad my SR20DE fuel injectors could be done in 1 hour hehe .

Change them all...

That's what everyone told me. Mine is at Pep Boys, didn't want to mess with it myself. They're charging $150 labor. Was supposed to be done this afternoon but supposedly one of the new injectors they received was bad. So tomorrow they say.....
