Hello, Today I replaced all my plugs, wires, and the coil (old coil's spark was yellow, replaced as per muir) I started it up, and it still lacks power. To kind of test things, I checked the connection on each of the fuel injectors. I went around the running engine, breifly unplugging each, with each unplugged, the idle kicked down and the engine struggled a bit. Until I got to the rear left cylinder. When I unplugged it, it made no noticeable difference in the engine idle. I unplugged the spark plug for that cylinder, the same thing, it didn't kick down the idle or anything, even though that cylinder is getting spark. I'm thinking I may have either a bad fuel injector or a bad connection to that injector. I checked my Haynes, but there wasnÕt much FI info. How can I test the connection and injector to make sure they're working properly? Thanks! Ben --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
