Can fuel injectors be repaired?

I have a set of 22lb injectors that were cleaned and flow checked @ 100k miles, put them back in the engine, and about 1750 miles later, one or more crapped out, so before I go toss 'em, I'd like to know if they can be salvaged. I have another set in the engine, so this is a spare set... Thanks...

I know there is a guy that flow checks and cleans them. He also replaces them if they are way out of spec. I can't remember his name or his website. Someone here will know.

Sorry, i wasn't much help
