how is the GPR? the running on 5 cylinders could be wiring. most likely the UVCH. how many miles on it?

I don't think it is a wiring issue because when it set over night they say that the injectors are leaking into the cylinders. Once it is running and I am going down the street it clears it self out and it runs like new. It has 249K miles on it. My question is will new o-ring stop the injectors from leaking fuel into the cylinders?

I doubt orings are your only problem... Sounds like an actual injector issue...
