I had already replaced three during the years. All for leaking. At least
two of the remaining originals are leaking and more than likely it is all
three that are leaking. At $70 each, replacing the three would be about
$210+. Of the three that I replaced, one was not like the OEMs. Parts guy
said it would work so I used it...it did. If I could get all 6 for less
than the cost of three OEM then why not.

What are you using for gas, all major fuels have additive to keep
injectors, even the inside of the engine clean of deposits.

There is a formula to calculate the correct injector size for your engine.
It is not an exact science. You have a range that you can use, but there are
drawbacks to going too big or too small. To calculate the minimum required
injector size, all you really need is the peak horsepower of the engine.
From there, it is a simple calculation. An engine requires 1/2 pound of fuel
per horsepower per hour, so from there you can use this simple formula:

Injector size(LBS./HR) = (Engine HP/(2*No. of cylinders*.85)

Using the specs from the Jeep website, a current 4.0 I-6 makes 190HP. So,
plugging that into the formula you would have:

Injector size = 190/(2*6*.85) or 18.63

The .85 is there to account for an 85% duty cycle on the injectors. This is
the maximum recommended duty cycle.

Considering that the engine power ratings these days are net, and they take
into consideration the drivetrain losses, your engine actually makes more
power than the net rating. In that case the 19LB injector is marginal. I
personally wouldn't run them and would stick to the 21LB or even look for
the next size up, which I believe is 24LB. Going to a larger injector won't
hurt anything, unless it is way too big, but going up a size or two won't
cause any problems.
