    Cool! Awesome. More in the saga of the injectors. After about a week of driving around I had more problems with those 42# injectors. Another one of them started vommiting fuel. I'm buying a ultrasonic cleaner and I'm going to put my old injectors back in. I'm not really pleased with...

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    Troubles resolved! Excellent news, we got the replacement injector from Jack Cotton Friday, and got the car back together on Saturday. Much better! It still runs a little rich at idle, but I think its just a matter of tuning at this point. With the TT chip for 42# injectors the car runs...

    All is well, I got an email response back from Jack Cotton from my email yesterday and talked to him on the phone today, he said send the injector back and he'll send one right out. YAY! -Zoey

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    So I tested the injectors with compressed air at lunch time and they didn't leak in the off state, which caused me to doubt our leaky injector theory, but I figured we should still get them tested. So surfed around on the web for a place in Sac to test my injectors, and I called a couple of...

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    The car has a header on it with turbo clamps connecting the cross over pipe. Because they are turbo clamps... they leak a bit. Anyway, the injectors are numbered 2277 and 01D030B on each one. The tie wraps were somewhat old and grotty so I did remove them, but the leads still obviously only...

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    I don't think the injectors are plugged in wrong, the harness doesn't seem to reach to the incorrect injectors. Is there a way I can tell for sure? The new injectors have new oring seals and I lubed them before putting them in. I'll check the plugs and see if I can isolate the problem. -Zoey

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    The rail does take time to bleed down, but it used to take more time than it does now. It used to never bleed down, so that's why I kind of suspected that the injectors were passing gas through them when they shouldn't be. I'll probably put the old injectors back in to see what happens. They...

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    Ok that makes sense, it does drop 5 psi, the sentence must be an ambiguous parse in the instructions. It seemed wrong because it never dropped *to* 5psi before, but it did drop 5psi. So that makes sense, but it still has raw fuel in the exhaust, and doesn't run right. So much raw fuel that...

    Troubles after injector upgrade...

    Hi folks, if you have any ideas on how to help me out on this one I'd be forever grateful. Here's the situation; Car was running fine with emissions chip and stock injectors. Got a Turbo Tweak chip for 42lb injectors, and 42lb injectors from Cottons pulled off the rail, and installed the...

    Yes, I'm in Rancho. Yes, I'm in Rancho Cordova (which is near Sac.) We should get together some time and hang out. I've been working on the GN a bit. I have a header exhaust leak I've been working on. -Zoey

    Hi, posting first time from Sacramento CA for my wife's car. (I'm the mechanic.) Recently finally solved some exhaust gasket problems by just throwing the gaskets away and prepping the surfaces + some copper spray gasket. Looking around to find some posi traction for her ride. Any...
