In less than a month i blew two fuel injectors on my car, and yesterday my friend blew one on his 92 240sx. What is up with that? just bad luck or what? how do you blow a fuel injector?

well, I kinda screwed 2 after running really low on fuel. my theory is that whatever dirt was in the bottom of the tank clogged them up.

I have a fuel rail w/3 working injectors if you need any.

On my second faulty injector, i dropped one seafoam bottle in the tank, and things went back to normal, you may want to try that as well.

you mean they blew?? they just blew? If so, never mind what I told ya...

if they stopped working, then my suggestions or a new fuel filter (z32 tt) as suggested may help.

like i said, it could just be dirt, I would drop another bottle just in case.

The fuel filter is located near the fuse box(battery side of car) right next to the tb(intake manifold). It's clamped by some curved metal things. Just follow your fuel lines if you can't find it.

well, yeah, if you have screwed up fuel injection, and you clean it/fix it, it should help it.
