IT could be ya ecu and also could be the wiring to the inj. Also check ya phase sensor but would of thought it do it on all inj if it was phase. If ya can get hold of the cossy tech manuel then it gives ways of testing inj s and wires but i cannot remember what it says. good luck

Yeah i ,d go with rolls its worth a try.
But to improve your chances weaken the idle mixture first, so it just about idles .so if the easy start or carb cleaner gets into the inlet manifold it will be more noticeable.

It could well be a sticky injector, they do this if stood long enough as the fuel varnish clogs things up.
Try swapping the injector over to see if it moves the problem.
