so figured it out and got the car running found a wiring grounding. was running great and then ou of nowhere was missing really bad. its the #3 cylinder checked voltage to injector pulled coil pack and have spark plug seem to have fuel on it but no idea why it not firing. i read that the injectors could stick open and flood the cylinder causeing ti not to run if so is there a way to check? getting ready to comp check and replace plugs hopefully its the last hurtle for the year

when i did my kade it went through 9 sets of injector o rings, flooded cyl4 and wouldent run. pull the fuel rail and key on the ignition. if one of the injectors looks like niagra falls you found your problem.

ok so i found the prob + a new prob. the main prob was that the rocker arm on the 3rd cylinder popped off no prob right. no scaring or marks on rocker arm or shim/ guide so just put it back together right!? well this brings me to my second prob the center cam cap both bolts broke off in the head and the one by the cam gear one of them is stripped. so.....now for a new question can these be fixed by a machine shop or should i just get a new head i dont see why a machine shop couldnt just remove the broken bolts and re-tap all 3. and yes this is my fault. i guess you live and learn not to trust a torque wrench that doesnt stay locked since it was set at 1.5 ft lbs and jumped to 8 give or take
