hi everyone i,m having a problem with my ka, long story short, went to the gym like everyday when i was done and got back in my car, started it and she was acting like she was runing on 2 cylinders, pop hood, take out #1 spark wire made no difference; all the rest did, cheked for spark, sparks in all 4, drove home, woke up this morning cheked spark plugs, all in great condition, distributor, cap/rotor, perfect condition, looked for vacuum leaks non at all, i think it's just not getting any fuel in #1 but not a 100% sure, anybody has any other ideas? any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks b4hand!!!p.s: 93, chuki, hatch, ka-de,rebuilt 4000 miles ago.

just replace the injector...i had same problem last week and what a world of difference

do an ohm test if ur not sure but my guess would be the injector

[ka-t4u]

yes you are right i went to school today and pulled out the fuel rail, KIDS DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME, with the injectors still on it and everything hooked up, piece of cardboard in front of it, cranked the car, #'s:2,3,4, were working properly, #1... , yup it was dead, well thank you guys for the help, i'll get an injector tonight and probaly change it tomorrow in school! THANKSS!!!!!!!

try the MAF

[nismopu]

I am guessing you checked the connector first before saying it was a bad injector?

[ncp2g]

so I take that the injector fixed the problem?
