I am at work and not looking at manual.
my cleaned set of injectors came in and I may try to replace tonight.
Is there anything that I will need outside the tools,Haynes manual and the cleaned injectors?
If I am going to need anything else I need to know before I rip things apart otherwise I can start it because I need the car to run to go to work in the morning.
any other advice also welcome.

Yeah, it might also be a good time to check and replace the rubber lined under the intake manifold, like the vacuum hoses, fuel lines, and that coolant hose on the rear iron that goes to the TB. Unless theyre in almost new condition, Id highly recommend replacing them, especially considering your car problems.
BTW, when was the last time your fuel filter was changed? You were talkign about your car problems in another thread, and you really should start your troubleshooting with a full tune-up.

fuel filter hasnt been changed yet. most everything else has except the injectors.
car runs real strong so I dont think motor is done yet.maybe it is , maybe it isnt. I will change the filter out soon.
car is not going to be around for long so I am not spending lot of time with it lately.
working on something else. maybe getting out of rotaries altogether.
love them but hate them too...like most of us...
