I will try that. Where I see air the most is after the prefilter when I pull on the throttle.
Forget everything else until you eliminate the air, PERIOD! Air in the fuel lines can cause a horrible idle in these cars...don't break one thing until you have fixed what you know is wrong. Your injectors are probably fine...there are people with these engines with a lot more miles than you with original injectors who have no trouble with them...fix the air leak and your car will probably be fine.
