Great to hear! May I suggest that you run Fuel Doctor for a while. Get a 1lr pack & just use it whenever you fill up. It will clean up everything that was missed.

i have seen them for 330 and over $2000 each why the price difference?
also can take a few hours to a few day to get old ones out…
The $2000 ones are probably from a dealer. Too many middlemen getting a cut.
Happens with most parts.

Price wise.....it's logical...cheapest supplier of the cheapest product to the dearest supplier of the best product.
Time wise...it's a matter of how much the Injectors have 'siezed' into the head....using an penetrating oil/spray/product to 'loosen' the Injectors is generally an overnight thing....doesn't happen all the time but is common in any diesel.
To be honest... unless the car was running poorly prior the initial problem you started this thread with I highly doubt the Injectors failed because of adding the petrol. That's not a common cause of Injector failure. Unless when it starts now it runs extremely poorly before it cuts out, I also doubt it's the Injectors.
Only my opinion. I'm not there and can't hear the engine running. A diesel engine with 2x failed Injectors would run very roughly and you would hear 'popping' in the engine exhaust 'note' while it ran before cutting out.
Also, in f you were to 'purchase' the dearest Injectors and pay for the job to be done your looking at around 5k+ for the job.... how much do you want/love this car ???....5k will buy you a very reliable daily driver....just saying.
Good luck.

Still not going-well it’s running if air is sprayed into filter but them stops after 1-2km
could be the fuel pressure regulator?
still trying to avoid expensive pump & injector repairs.

If it ran for a couple of km’s then it is unlikely to have suffered a HP fuel pump failure and injectors are also likely still ok. It could be pulling air in around the fuel filter or the fuel delivery pipe if you are seeing leaks. Air entering the fuel delivery system could explain you woes.
