Valve clearances were the only other thing I could think of to check myself before taking it to someone to look at the injectors. I did notice that the idle is higher since the seal was done, so possibly the fuel was turned up? I'm getting noticeably worse economy than previously too

It was probably turned up to compensate for sucking air threw the seal, back it off a tiny tiny bit at a time until you just get a light haze.
