Hi guys, following my problems yesterday which I attributed to a knakd starter it appears my problem is actually a hydro (hydra? - surely hydro would be water? - never mind!) lock in one cylinder. The general view seems to be either a stuck open injector or more likely a pinched lower injector o-ring. I have recently upgraded the injectors so I guess the O-ring would be the place to start.

 

Any observations or other possibilities?

 

Cheers

Do you have any injector noid lights? These go in the injector connector and flash when the ECU fires the injector. If the light is on constantly its a wiring/ecu fault, if it flashes normally then its an o-ring/injector issue

Noid lights:

LMAO - noid lights, you're making this up Andy!!

 

No, seriously, looks like a good idea but I seem to be overspending on 'single use' tools at the moment, another one for box at the back of the shed :-\, s'pose it's only £15 but they all add up. Don't s'pose anyone in the Chester area has a set I could borrow??

 

Couldn't I just rig an appropriate bulb and wires to the suspect injector and get the same result? I don't suppose these Draper items would fit our connectors 'out of the box' anyway...?

 

Cheers
