Injector then

Do a Bubble test

COMPRESSION BUBBLE TEST
DTS Articles - Compression Bubble Test

IIRC there method of single out bad inject you will mis 1 or more if you have Multiple bad injectors

if there is Bubbles then pull all GP and then put each GP back in 1 cylinder ata time when you get to cylinder with Bad Injector that bubbles Pull it Back Out and Continue to test 1 cylinder at a Time make sense
