Default P0261 code

I spoke too soon the stumbling problem I've been experiencing has come back. P0261 front injector open/low comes up, some injector cleaner did the trick for a while but the prob. Is back. Do I need new injector?

More likely a wiring or connector problem. You can swap injectors front to rear, rear to front, clear codes and ride. If the code switches to rear injector open/low, then replace that injector. If the front code comes back, then you have a wiring or connector issue.
