How long were the fuel injectors sitting around before you used them for the first time?
A lot of cleaners will cause the fuel injectors to get stuck if left for over several weeks. Check with the shop that did the cleaning if this were the case... You can verify this by "wiring" (i.e. use pieces of wire or wire tie) the fuel injectors to the fuel rail. Pull the fuel injectors and fuel rail at the same time. Place a rag under the tips. Have a friend crank the car... Visually confirm you get "squirts" of fuel. -Ted |

Fuel injectors were cleaned by a fuel injection shop about.... 8/9 months ago? definitely not a jspec engine. Quote:
I rigged a test light to verify that the injectors were firing. So I know I'm getting a signal to the injectors. If it comes to it I'll have to pull them and test to make sure they spray. I've got a couple other things to check and I'll report my results back. thanks fellas! |

Anything beyond a month is no guarantee. If you have delicate fingers (touching the fuel injectors body) or are very good hearing (use a length of hose stuck in your ear and the other end to the fuel injector body), you can actually feel / hear the fuel injectors clicking... I normally would just pull them and wire them to the fuel rail, as this test will surely confirm if they are shooting fuel or not. -Ted |

I decided to pull the connectors and test both of them. Only the bank 1 injector is firing. So i've got some kind of wiring issue... yay ![]() Last edited by jahjahsqc; 12-18-2013 at 08:17 AM. |
