do a compression check as the 5th injector might have burnt out the valves as usually they are more hassle then they are worth.

the 5th injectors are usually on a pressure switch, se nissan used a metro oil pressure switch that came on far to early, 5psi if i remember correctly, this would probably bore wash.
