pull the injectors out and have someone switch on the key and see if all have the same mist

I would take an ohm meter and check the ohm's of each injector. They should be between 12-14 ohms. That all should be close in comparision also. Hope this helps.

That or use a Noid. Or even checking plugs after a hard run and inspect (not number one on my list but can be done, one should be siginifgantly different then others).

Any flashing SES light showing a misfire, or more background on the situation?

Default checking injectors

I tried to check the codes with a paper clip, but the light would not even flash12 to say that it was ready.

Go to autozone, they will scan for free, you do not need a MIL light on to have codes stored.

I don't believe that works on OBD-II controllers.
