Is this right? /close but no cigar. At least you were lucky enough to find someone who knew that there WERE trigger points. One contact controls 1 & 4, the other controls 3 & 2.

It IS possible that you have the wrong connectors on the wrong injectors. Check the Bentley manual; I THINK the connectors with grey covers go on the rear (rear is rear) injectors, 2 & 4. I don't know if this might cause your problem. > How do you check this on the distributor? Problem can't be there.
