Scott,
My injectors wiggle too; this is normal as I just cleaned them and they seated just fine. I replaced the seals and they sure needed it: rubber had turned to plastic on the outer, thin seal. My car seems to run a little smoother now too. This is a cheap and relatively easy repair job: about $20 for the seals and $30 for cleaning the injectors at the shop. Worth it if you think you need it or have high miles and it hasn't been done in a long time.
Rough idle could be any number of things, as I'm learning these days. Check out the 700/900 FAQ at the Brickboard homepage; great suggestions there for fixing erratic or rough idle.
Best of luck and post to let us know what you've done,
Matt
