Replace them whit a set that has been bench tested and flows within 5% of each other. This will be a lot better than your stock injectors. You will have find them though, but don't put any larger than stock in.

Search the past threads, I recall some saying you can get them ALL flow tested to be within 10% of each other & the cost is only $10/injector + shipping.
Investigate the past for that answer.

Yep, http://www.cruzinperformance.com is the company, Rich Jensen's the guy who runs it. He's really helpful & quick w/shipping... he accepts PayPal, too.
Altho... if a fuel injector's leaking internally, I don't think he can fix that... give him an email and find out!

Definetly find out if they can be fixed & cleaned first, and if you have to replace them heres what I found out about prices when I replaced mine.
Local (ripoff!) garage: $100 each
GM Dealership : $90 each
CarQuest : $67 each (w/ discount)
Summit Racing : $169 for 6 Accel injectors
I got the Accel ones from Summit, and they were backordered forever! But they work fine aside from being just a little shorter than the stock ones so you may have to wiggle the fuel rail around a little to get them to your liking. But they do seal alright and work great!
PS
I'm assuming you have a V6, but if you have a V8 those Accel ones come in 8 packs too, whatever flow rating you need.
