Eric,

In the future, please include the year of your brick in your posts, that way we won't have to dig through your previous posts to find out what fuel injection system you have. Not a biggy, just a reminder. You most likely have a 561 pink label ECU that is known to be unreliable after 21 years. You got the code for bad fuel injectors along with a few others but yet you heard each injector "click". The only time the ECU tosses a bad fuel injector code is if it sees injector resistance that is too high or too low, a virtual impossibility given that all four "click" just fine!

The last time I had the bad fuel injector code, the injectors were fine but the car ran rich and stalled, that was a 1990 with a 1989 pink label ECU. I replaced the ECU with a white label unit and all problems went away.

Hope that helps, you need a new used ECU.
