Mark, I'm pretty sure your injectors are separated from the mayhem of combustion and flying debris by the valves. When the injectors are exposed to that violent area, there should be a pretty good breeze sucking debris away. I don't know a lot about the Vanagon fuel injection, but I think there are two electrical connections shared by the four injectors. A bad wire makes more sense to me than floating nastiness.
