Default 6.0l excursion with weak or failing injectors

My brothers excursion either has an injector going out or has one getting weak. He has always ran royal purple syn in it and thinks that the bonding agents in it have started to gum up the injector in question. Has anyone heard of this? Is it something that has a cheaper fix then the 3600$ for parts and labor that he's been told it'll cost? Any help and/or opinion, as always, would be appreciated

I would bet you have a bad wire harness or a spool valve that is gummed up.

Truck get regular oil changes?
