well the injectors are definitely NOT the problem, and bigger injectors is NOT the solution.
Won't idle? Check for vacuum leaks.
No power? How long has it been since you replaced the sock filter on your fuel pump? Is your cat clogged? 5th and 6th ports opening correctly?

If you simply drop in bigger injectors, you will lose power and use more fuel (which costs money). To get the mixtures right again you'd need at least a fuel controller (which costs money), which will need to be tuned properly, either by buying a wideband A/F meter (which costs money) to do it yourself or taking it to a dyno for professional tuning (which costs money). See the pattern? How much are these injectors really saving you?

Remove the old injectors and have them professionally cleaned. It'll cost a lot less and achieve the same result.
