Injector Possibly bad

Had some plug problems...although I thought. Changed plugs recently. car had been running rough (missing) on idle when warmed up. Finally after changing the plugs within 4 minutes we had a miss on #8. Checked plugs before I had new ones, and noticed 8 was verydark and wet. Started her up and pulled the injector wire on #8 and it was the culpret. Measured Ohm reading. all the rest were 17. However the #8 injector gave me a 4.6 Ohm. Sounds like a bad one.... The big question is, should I change them all, due to the fact that I will need to take off the plenum. Or should I just change the one. BTW I think that fuel additive called Guarrantied to pass may have done that injector in.
injectors are 18 yrs old.

Re: Injector Possibly bad

Right now I'm trying to pass Cali's smog check. Where is the best place to look? I'm not trying to get more horsepower, I just want 22LB injectors.

www.summitracing.com sells SVO injectors. but if you just want one injector to replace the one that is bad on your car, i have like 3 sets of 22lb stock injectors. you can come pick one up if you like, im right here in Bakersfield.
