Message	come with a warranty and they are subject to break at any moment. It appears you asked if they had been sitting in a car that had been subjected to ethanol...the seller told you they ohmed out. If he gave you proof they did, from my perspective there is not much else he could do. The bigger issue is, the seller chose to pull and replace all 6 injectors when only 3 had been affected by ethanol...for me that would be a clue that the other 3, while they may have worked fine when pulled, are not far from suffering the same fate. Chalk it up as an unfortunate learning experience. Good luck with getting it fixed.
