Default 746 injector " upgrade"

Installed refurbished 746 injectors in 89 Cherokee 4.0....... now it idles very roughly and dies at stop lights. It's running pretty rich right now.I've seen threads stating it takes some time for the ECU to adjust....could this be my problem? It ran ok with originals although I had 2 leaking o-rings( part of reason for change).I'm 4 hrs from home and would hate to be stranded.....HELP!!!!!! Thank you....
