Mike,
That's pretty unusual. Are you sure it's the injectors and the coils (usual
suspects) or the DME?

Not without a new chip.
The '96+ injectors have a little higher flow rate and your current chip/DME
combo will flood the cylinders.

Allocate another $250 to your '96 injectors budget to get a proper chip
from JimC.
That should push the cost of the 'deal' above buying brand new OE '95
injectors.
If you are planning on internal engine upgrades (cam, etc), it may be a
good time to invest in 24# injectors and a matching chip.
