i find that hard to believe. just a small tweak to the idle fueling will cause loping. the injectors use 10 times the amount for cruising. all you are doing is causing the ECM to overshoot then undershoot the amount of fuel calculated to idle smoothly.

i think more harm will be done to the engine mounts and other parts from the engine surging all of the time before you get failure of injectors from this.
