Jim,
On your #6 cylinder you might want to make a very close inspection of the line and fittings coming out of the flow divider going to the injector. I had a situation just like you and after many flights trying to clean the injector, looking for fod in the flow divider, etc. I discovered the stainless steel line from the flow divider to the injector had a very small hole in it. Since the fuel coming out of the flow divider is not under any pressure I didn't have any of the usual signs of a leak. But the crack was enough to allow air in the system which caused that injector to be lean. I would swap the line with another line and see if the problem follows the line. I was able to find the defect in my line but it took a magnifying glass to do it. The defect was located at the joint where the end is braised on.
