Injector out? help

My 1995 f250 7.3 was running rough and lope idle sounded like dead hole. After looking back injector on pass side want firing. I ohmed (all ~3.4) like others and checked voltage and was getting voltage to injector. i ohmed on harness to check good connection. no oil drains out from injector drain no engine speed differance when unplugged that injector. Any help or input is welcome!

Remove the coil and swap with another cylinder and see if the issue moves. Also check armature clearance while the coil is off. Less than .002 is a worn injector.
