firing on 5
hello mate,tell me about it, it took a while to get all of the parts etc and i gave the job to someone to do for me but he had it 2 weeks and as you can see i'm back to square one. my own fault for buying a 2nd hand injector rail.false economy and all that. i dont know how to check the ecu but the middle injector is definately not working

delimiter/power steering
hi just taken the z for a burst up the road after fitting a delimiter and notice a difference in the power steering, its definately stiffer. i have read somewhere on this site that this might happen but can't remember what the opinions or thoughts on this matter were. any info please? cheers.

firing on 5
i've brought this up before but i've renewed the drivers side injector rail as the rear injector was faulty. i picked up the car yesterday and it is still running like a pig. i removed the coilpack plug on the rear whilst the engine was running and the engine revs dropped which obviously means that one's ok now. however it now seems to be the middle one on the same side not working. i'm kicking myself as i took a chance on using a second hand injector rail which obviously doesn't come with any gaurantees. i'm at the stage now where a gallon of petrol and a match is the cheaper option!! if i can't sort it soon i will put it up for sale (as is), perhaps someone in the club might be interested in it. it's a jap tt.i can email details if interested

It Would Appear That Tommyg109 Unfortunately Had The Right Answer. I Put The Car In For A Diagnostic Check And It Turns Out It Is The Injector So Its Gonna Cost. I'm Ordering Gaskets And Parts From Mjp And The Mechanic At Work Is Going To Fit It For Me

just when you think you have won, reality kicks in, (NORMALY IN THE TEETH) and the problem reoccurs and won't go away. i think a lumpy trip to a garage is calling! THE END
