screw buying used injectors or new injectors for that matter..go to www.witchhunter.com. they charge like $18 per injector to have them cleaned and flow tested. so you'll have $36 in the injectors (less than you'd pay anywhere) and you'll have them in under a week. i have used the company several times with outstanding results!

I'll second that. I sent my SE injectors to KG parts and they came back perfect. Usually there is no need to buy new ones.

I got injectors from carpartsteam.com a few years back, PN CVU42-12125 at $102/pc... though sadly that doesn't look like a valid part number on their site anymore.
Though I did a quick look and carparts.com has two options for less than $100 46CP2408 is one of them... my IE crashed on the other one.
I don't recall if leaking was why I got new injectors, I think there was another issue I was looking for - though the new vs old injectors made no performance difference or MPG change. See the attached for flow curves if you like... I did this when I was working at Delphi
The excel file extension isn't accepted here, so it's changed to a text.

You can actually remove the injector and clean it by hand- just run some low pressure - or blow by mouth the reverse direction and see if there's a piece of junk in it.
DO be caereful of the filter screen and the face of the injector since it effects the spray pattern, but it's just a little piece of stainless, fairly robust.

I do no recommend doing this. Send the injectors to KG parts. It will cost you less than 25.00 for both. I got mine back in less than a week, and that included the time it took to ship them there, have them cleaned and tested, and sent back to me.
