3) bad injectors

If you buy the index 9 injectors from eBay, expect them to last maybe 25,000 miles or so. 40k at best.

You'll need couplers

Hopefully, they will have new seals on them. I would think they would.
yes i did code the injector using inpa. 57.3 and 2.16 for fuel injector fuel injector #6. I swapped coils last night to double check it wasnt the coil and it is still missfireing. So defiantly not the coil. I have a new plug in so its not that. All im left with is possible fuel injector, vacuum leak, which wouldn't that be in multiple cylinders? Faulty fuel pump, maybe my lpfp because it goes up and down when accelerating but would that be multiple cylinders? I have a log here too give me a minute to find it. Can i replace cylinder 6 injector with old index 9 to return the injector i just bought?
The old injector won't seal correctly since it's been out of the cylinder too long. You probably can't return it, but you could sell it. Vacuum leaks may cause a code. Fuel pumps will definitely cause a code.
