I contacted RC today and I think they are going to recheck them. It sucks... because I'm SURE I will get fuel on my newly painted motor. ARGH.. Plus the down time.
Spoke to Carol today @ RC and she is going to take all 4 of them back and reclean and check them at their cost.
Note: She says when cleaning injectors they need to be run within 30 days of being cleaned or the possibilty of them sticking exists. For me I had them cleaned when I started my motor rebuild (Spring) and didn't fire it up until Summer.

yeah ive seen it happen before, sucks for the down time
oh yeah to keep the fuel spil to the minimum, unplug the fuel pump (pull the relay?) and run the engine til its out of gas. it'll still spill a little, but it wont be high pressure

Wow I'm such a DumbAss I didn't even think about that... Great time.
I do have a pressure gauge on my fuel rail (as it feeds my NOS nozzles via a solenoid) so I waited a few days for the pressure to show Zero. Then lifted everything up and threw a cup under one of the injectors as I pulled them.

Got my injectors back. They said there was nothing wrong with them, but went a head and cleaned them again and changed the filters.
They are all flowing 550 +/- 1 cc
I'll get them back in the motor this weekend. I did check the wiring at the ECU and was good to there. So I hope my Haltech doesn't have a problem...
