I've tried Jim's suggestion. It works well.

With 25 miles on a used serviced injector, maybe the issue went
unnoticed at that time?
Maybe it was poorly serviced? And regardless of occasional starts,
over 5 years fuel pressure obviously leaks down. I don't know enough
of injector construction but would guess that the moving parts inside
could dry out, gum up and stop moving.

Back flush injectors?
