Default Code p0200

the check engine light came on about a week ago. i finally got around to check what it was and it was code p0200 injector control circut. ive noticed since the light came the car gives a gas smell like its running really rich. ive also noticed that the car studers a little under 1300 rpm's with the ac on. how can i fix this? do i need new injectors? thanx in advance

Unless you have access to a Tech II, or similar software to monitor the cylinders, you need to isolate the issue to a cylinder. You can listen to the injectors with a stethoscope to listen to the firing. Further confirmation can be achieved by pulling the plugs to see their condition. If you have an injector that's sticking open, you should see it on the plugs. Also, you can check the pressure at the rail to see if you have bleed down.
