also check the wiring to the injector, make sure the plug is making good contact, make sure the pink wire has 12v key-on power (the ground is what alternates for the signal) at that point switch that injector from #3 to #5 for instance and seperate it from the previous ignition stuff going to 1, might help you pinpoint easier.
You might be able to get a single injector......but if one's acting up, I'd personally just grab a set......they're all the same age/milage etc. if thats the case I wouldn't want to run the risk personally.

I suggest you have a professional take a look at your truck. There is a shop located in the San Fernando Valley that we trust will ALL of our So Cal installs and trouble shooting. JPA 818-994-4410, ask for Jeff.
