Such an amazing video exactly what’s been going on my Kia put plugs coil packs and wires on it cleaned the mass air flow sensor been all over but it doesn’t have a schrader valve so I’ve been questioning my injectors and I’ve pulled my plugs back out and they were full soaked and I’ve put a regulator on it and cleaned the pump up but very very informative video 👍👍

Love your channel man. To the point, no nonsense, simple and in plain English and in layman's terms. Thank you brother. Great content.

Appreciate the tips my 97 4Runner had me lost for a while. On acc power I could hear a constant clicking, and when I removed the efi relay it stopped which lead me to think a fuel injector was stuck and your hydrolock comment just verified my thoughts

Very informative, I’m getting worried my car has injector leak. My oil level kept getting higher on the dipstick a month after oil change. I’m thinking fuel is leaking and seeping through the piston rings into the crank case when engine is turned off.

Thank you so much I had all of these issues on my f150

Dope video brother, answered all my questions

[RC-qfet]

My question is, at minute 4:35 you say to remove the fuel rail with the injectors still in place then to turn key on to pressurize the system. Won't the injectors blow out since there is nothing holding them in place at this point? Also, what is hydo lock please? Thank you, and finally, "let's just say" this is a good video, informative.

Just got an p2 town and country it cranks no start. But I found if I hold the gas pedal down then crank 3 or 5 times it starts and I can do this every time. I did tune up and valve co ergaskets and pcv egr iac and throttlebody cleaning same issue. When u mention wet plugs I will pull the front ones since I can't reach the back 3 and see if they are wet before holding the pedal down. If wet then your mention of stuck open injectors.

i didn't mention very rough idle and plenty of vibration with gear on DRIVE

Thanks alot - i suspect i have bad injectors, i constantly see puddles right under the injectors.. - i checked my plug cylinder 3, it gets wet and black after a while - also, as im driving for about car loses power....heavy, on an incline i can forget it....she wont move....it goes extremely slow causing cars behind me to lol. Is this due to injectors as well? Golf3 - 2.0 8v - -thank you very much

Came across your channel and tips. When I change my fuel injector do I have to change out the spark plug if it's wet or will it eventually dry up and not smoke? I had a misfire changed spark plugs and wires swapped out coils. Added gasket sealer. Still smoking. I haven't driven it though. You think the smoke will go away?

I have a 2011 Buick LaCrosse with the 3.6 engine, I'm getting fuel flooding into the oil, can this be injectors? I already changed high pressure fuel pump

[dydxgarage]

thank you for helpful tips.
please help me. its a 2009 HONDA ACCORD 2.4L. check engine light on, VSA on high negative fuel trims -18ST and -19LT. DTC is P0341. I have done timing chain and tensioner, change spark plugs, fuel pump and regulator, cam sensors replaced also coils

I have a p0172 bank 1 rich that I am chasing. My o2 sensors are saying the mixture is lean, however. My
Obd2 scanner shows no fault with any injectors. Could one or more be leaking and still show no fault? I have not found any vacuum leaks and have replaced most components while previously chasing a lean code in bank 2.

Any suggestions? My ltft on bank 1 are -25 and -14 at idle but normalize while accelerating. The o2 sensor before cat for bank 1 fluctuates between 0.2 and 0.8 volts every 3-6 seconds, with engine not so warm.

Should all of the symptoms you described cause a check engine light or high fuel trims?
