ok I replaced 2 fuel injectors last week, #3 and #4 were both dead. Anyways car ran great for about a week, then one night at a light, it started to idle a bit more rough, and I could feel hesitation when accelerating. My gas mileage also worsened. When I umplug the fuel injectors, the engine reacts to all BUT the #4 injector. Which means it is either the injector, or something to do with the wiring? Anyone have a clue what it could be?

you could put one of the working injectors in cylinder 4 to see if it is wiring. or use a multimeter. using a multimeter saves you from pulling injectors.

im not sure if a badly leaking lower o-ring would cause this. they obvously get damaged in installation. when you pull the electrical connector, it obviously continues leaking so there might not be a change in hp.

I'm seeing a lot of injector problems on this board. I'm having some of my own. Is this a normal thing or just some bad luck from a few people?
