cylinder 2 STILL not firing

Yesterday cylinder 2 quit on me. Spark was fine. I did some searching found out the injector was most likely the problem. So I tested the injector with an ohm meter, didn't register at all, so the coil must have been broken completely. I bought a new injector today put it on, the car ran fine for a few minutes, then cylinder 2 went dead again. When I first start it, it seems fine, but after a minute or two it quits firing. Any ideas? The only thing left that I can think of is the ECU, is there any way to test that? I am also going to compression test the car later on today.

Pulled the rail, the new injector is leaking. I pulled it out and sure enough the O-ring is crushed. I used white lithium grease when installing them, just as the instructions that came with the injector said. Maybe I didn't use enough? Now I need to track down some new o rings.

Put a new O-ring on and its back on 4 cylinders now. Plus the new muffler I put on this weekend, the rubbing compound and wax last weekend, and its starting to be a decent car.
