Message	:How much risk am I taking replacing just one injector? Now that I have removed the plenum, I am not sure I want to go through this again. I am at 112k miles. Am I taking a big risk on the other 5 injectors failing soon? Is the ohm check any indication of how much life is left in the injector? The failed injector had failed open and the other injectors have enough green corrosion that I had to use a Dremel tool to clean them up just to check their resistance. I am replacing all of the injector cable connectors. Is it a good idea to put dielectric grease on the connectors after i clean them? You have convinced me, I'll change them all! I don't really want to dremel out the plenum.
