Fuel injector replacement for '87
First time on this forum, hope I can pick your collective brains to help with an upcoming repair. I'm an original owner of a stock (OK, upgraded wheels, tires and stereo) '87 LXi with 172000 miles. The fuel injectors are leaking so I'm collecting info on replacing them.
I started with the parts department of the local dealer and almost passed out when they told me new injectors are $140 each (including o-rings and seals). I searched the web and found several distributors who could beat this price, but I don't know who's reliable and who's not. Any suggestions? Anything learned the hard way on past replacements that might help with mine?
Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion--didn't know you could buy just the seals. What's the normal life span for injectors? These are working, but all of them are leaking fuel from the lower seal.
