Wow, there are actually little filters in the injectors... I wonder if those ever get replaced or cleaned when the injectors are rebuilt.

My rebuilt injectors are pouring fuel out between the halves. I am not happy. It looks like they need to come out again.
It seldom works but it is sometimes possible hold the lower Nut with a Wrench and tighen up the upper Body with a Crows Foot type Wrench.

If you use a Torqe Wrench and you position the Crows Foot 90 degrees from the Head of the Wrench as in the picture the torque is accureate no matter the length.
you just need to be careful not to bend the Fuel Return Nipples on the Injector.

I don't now what method you used to rebuild the Injectors but except for not using a real Lapping Plate the below comes close to what a shop would to when they rebuild Injectors.
Vince Walden how to rebuild IDI Injectors.

I don't like the idea of using Abrasive Paper because I don't believe it is flat enough but People do it with no issues.

I think a Plate of Glass with 600 grit Lapping/Grinding Compound or finer is is better choice.
