Re: [T3] fuel injectors???


yeah, i wouldn't blindly replace them either; esp. not at >$40 each.
disconnect the fuel lines, disconnect the FI wires from the injectors, remove 
the injectors, reconnect the fuel lines, reconnect the wires, and then turn 
on the ignition (maybe you have to crank, i'm not sure). or better, have 
someone else do it, so you can see better. you want to see a nice conical 
spray of gas from each injector, and no dripping/leaking. do this for both 
sides.
i think i'm right in saying that they shouldn't go bad now if you're using 
the car regularly (i.e. once a fortnight or more). they usually go bad from 
having stale gas or no gas in them for a while, causing seals to dry up, and 
rust to form.
also, you should probably count on replacing the injector boots (both ends, 8 
in all) when you're there. they're available from rocky mountain motorworks
