I wouldn't pull the injectors for o rings unless you are having problems. You may create new problems with the injectors. Just fix anything obvious if you are planning on selling.

I don't consider it lazy. I take my maintenance pretty serious. I'm currently in the middle of an 1100 mile round trip that has me out in the swamps of Cajun country several hundred miles from home.

The food is good, but it's no place to be broke down. If I thought I needed any of those things I didn't do, I would have done them. I did my injectors as a PM issue, just didn't see the need for the other stuff.

I am having some cold-running issues until the engine heats up a little bit. I'm also beginning to think that it may just be a sticking IPR, which I neglected to mentioned earlier that I am planning on replacing it as well. I think I'll just replace that first and see if it clears up my cold-engine issue.
