1998 Oldsmobile Intrigue Fuel injectors

After driving my car for about 7 hours straght.. I had got to my distnation and turned it off.. About 30 minutes later i went to turn it on and the engine started shaking like it is runnig out of gas n the check enigine light started blinking... I had the car for a month and it has 132,000 miles.. I got the spark plugs n wires changed.. The mechanic says that i need ALL 6 fuel injectors replaced... COuld i just put fuel injector cleaner in it to fix the injectors??

It is not very comon that all 6 injectors go bad at the same time! I would have someone put it on a computer and that should tell you exactly what it is. Maybe 1 or 2 injectors but not 6. The ones that are not bad should be cleaned. Fuel injector cleaner will not fix injectors.
