Default Fuel Injectors

.......Having great problems finding fuel injectors for the V8. I have one failed in open position and not sure if cleaning will repair it. Anyone know of stock anywhere please??
Bosch discontinued them in August last year I think?
Thanks
Peter

This is Autotech car servicing and did find them on a search but was looking for a parts supplier of 'Bosch' parts but they do not seem to exist any more.......but I will ring them anyway.
Thanks for your help.
Peter
PS- I did find a Bosch catalogue that said discontinued 8/2015

If your going to use the car just fill the tank and run the fuel through.
Run it down to as far as you can (carry 10L just in case)

The next tank I would put Injector Cleaner in.

If not using the car it is better to drain the fuel. I'm not sure how.

On our ZS I just removed the pipe to the Fuel Rail and ran the pump till empty.
