Default CEL #16 after thermostat install

The other day after I installed a new thermostat, code CEL #16 (fuel injector system) shows up. I tried relieving it by taking out the 15A fuse under the hood fuse block but code still shows up thereafter. I have a set of used DSM 450cc's with OEM Honda resistor box. It has been doing fine for over 4 months now. Would some injector cleaner (STP, Lucas, etc.) do the trick or is it time to dump the used injectors and grab some new ones? Any suggestions would be most appreciative.
