what'd you do to make sure that your injectors aren't leaking or bad? i'm just asking out of curiousity.

Code 23 triggered the leaky injector code. Check the connections of the 23 and change it if necessary. If you have a blown injector or injector that's stuck open or shut, then code 45 would be prevalent.

FSM is what stated that it could have been connection, leak or badd injector but i never said i did anything to check if the injector was badd, i just looked for debris arround the head and manifold. I am pulling the fuel rail off today to see whats going on. so ill let u know what happens... and as for idle switch code 23, boost boy you said change it? do u mean change the idle switch or change the connection just need some clarity on that..

Your idle switch is a part of the TPS. You're going to have to change the tps sensor. Look in to one of your cylinders for a pool of fuel, though I seriously doubt you have a leaky injector.

I'm in on this late, but Dee's right. I doubt you have a leaky injector has the car would be running quite rich I think. Have you messed with the TPS at all? I would start by cleaning all of the connection, then checking for continuity through the plug by checking from the harness side. The FSM walks you through how to do it. If you need help, just lemme know.
