Default Injector Wires ?

So I found out that its not the injector thats making me misfire, because everytime I clear the code by resetting the computer, my jeep drives like a dream !!! So now i turn to the wires. Is there a complete harness I can buy or is it individually ? I called NAPA and they said they only sold individual pigtail wires for $17 each ! Any ideas ?

Or should I just get the pigtail and replace the one wire going to the problem injector and see if that helps ? Also, how would you go about doing this ? Where should I cut the orig. wire and add the new ? Also, How in the hell do you take the harness off the injector ? I can see a red tab that clicks up and a plastic piece that pushes in and I thought that would be it but I cannot get these things off for the life of me, I dont want to break the injector ! Help please !

Maybe if you find the malfunctioning wire first, that'll give a better idea as to how to proceed. Are you misfiring in just one cyl? Which one?

Yeah, just one, #5. But I dont think its the injector because I have re-set the ecu 3 times and each time it runs great ! If it was a mechanical issue such as a bad injector, wouldn't it mis-fire no matter what ?
