Original injectors- anyone still have them?

Just curious to know how many are still running with the stock, 22-26 year injectors. If so, and their still running well, what have you been doing to them as far as a maintenance stand point. Thnx

I took my stock original 1991.0 non i/c injectors out to have them pop tested at Diamond Diesel in West Sacramento a couple weeks ago, fully expecting them to say "they're bad" and sell me a new set. However, they came back out and said, wow they're all popping at the perfect pressure, with a great spray pattern - how old did you say these were?

Also, going to hack into my own post, how many of you still running POD's from when you swapped those in and yanked out your stock injectors? This is addressed to ones that have gone to prince of darkness injectors as part of their 1st BOMB on their trucks

Mine are still in. Never been out and we just rolled 380 a few weeks ago. See they on pristine condition? I don't know because they've never been out.
