I am experiencing a round spray mark on my rear window, directly above one of my trumpets. I am thinking that this is due to an injector being stuck in the open position. My engine is acting a bit odd on startup, and doesn't idle
as well as it should (flooding one cylinder?)
Will the existing rail pressure fill the cylinder with fuel upon shutdown of the engine, or does the injector have to "pop" in order to allow fuel through it? I'm no injector expert, that's for sure. What experience I have with them has been limited to marine diesels until quite recently. I don't want to risk "washing" the cylinder, or possibly damaging valves, piston, etc. Raw gas doesn't compress too well! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
I haven't pulled the spark plug yet to check for raw fuel, but that's the first thing on my list.
Anybody have any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Bill
