The title says most of what I am asking....I have a injector that when read with a meter reads "Open" no ohm's at all not even 0. It must be stuck open because the car is running rich and idles very poorly with much hesitation. I know ther has been much talk about injectors going bad but do we usually see one of the eight bad or should I simply pull the intake and but the bullit and do them all now? Currently #3 is out and I think I can R&R it without pulling the intake, has anybody done tried? Has it been done? All replies are appreciated

Check out the prevoius posts.

SOP is to move the questionable ones to the accessible locations. Just replace what is necessary, but with CA crapgas, that will be more often than the rest of the country.

Religious use of BG44K and ISO-heet can help.

Funny how we both seem to have the same issues with our Q's Scott. First the springs and now the injectors. Fred (fxjackso, not palmerwmd) has 3 injectors for sale that he says are in good shape. He's located in Lafayette. You might want to contact him... zerothread?id=125413

Can anyone tell me How do products like ISO-Heet work. I know they are used to remove H2O but how do they do it and should I feel any side effects while they are in my gastank?

I bought a new non infinity unit from a local supplier for $94.00 and had it next day. I will start installing it tonight and hopefully it will get done tonight. Has anyone here swapped #3 without removing the manifold? Just curious how much time I should spend before I split the intake.

Thanks for everyones help

Scott
