Code P0263

My truck is an 05 F350, it has 99k on it and is bone stock, I have the Edge Insight to watch temps and EGTs, It starts fine but runs like crap on low rpms until it is hot, it started doing it a few months ago and is getting worse, FICM voltage is fine, I run Rotella T6 in it, fuel filters have been changed, and I ran some hotshot secret through it last oil change. I am getting a P0263 code, injector 1 contribution/balance code. I have cleared it a few times and it comes back in a few miles. I guessing that injector needs to be replaced?

Is it a tough job to do? Where's the best place to buy an injector?

The tech folder has a thread on injector replacement,if it were me and I wanted one injector I'd go to a ford parts guy/shop.

They are time consuming. And after the first one they are alot faster. But overall a very basic type of job. Make sure you get a tool to get the stand pipes out.
