no fuel to injectors- please help
Try bleeding the fuel system for a couple of minutes. Put all the
injectors in a jar, and lift the plate in the fuel distributor with the
fuel pump engaged. I didn't bleed mine long enough, and ended up
buying 4 new injectors thinking they were the problem... (oh well, at
least I have new injectors now :-)
HTH,
Mark.
