Mike,
I'm not near close enough to need new injectors; however, if no one else wants to slit a set I would be willing to go ahead and buy 4.  Let's give it a couple of days to see if anyone else wants to jump in; otherwise I'll go ahead and split a set with you.  BTW, I'headed to Orlando for a family vacation tomorrow so I don't know if I'll be on the Internet after about 2:00 tommoorrow afternoon so if I don't answer you'll know why.
