Left injector dripping, right injector seems fine

Just wondering if I should replace the injectors, take them off and clean them somehow, or just poor fuel injector cleaner in the gas tank.

take them out and get them cleaned locally. witchhunter is also highly recommended if you are in the US as he actually tells you what each injector flows at and can match them.

Re: Left injector dripping, right injector seems fine

Why would you spend $22 on injectors that only cost around $50 ea new ?

Try Chevron Techron or the GM equivalent (AC-Delco X66 or 10-3000) in the gas tank before mechanical repair.

Consider buying Top Tier gasoline from now on.

Replaced the injectors. Got two remaned injectors, new gasket, and new O-Rings for $90 on eBay.
