I still don't no what the problem is as I've been to busy to look at the car but for a car that now owes me more than double what I paid for it, I hope to god it's not expensive!

rbjet Skid Machine Donating Members 1,640 Member For: 13y 8m 1d Gender: Male Posted 22/03/12 11:19 PM Author Share Posted 22/03/12 11:19 PM I've never had any luck with any cars. Starting to think I should give up. I reckon I've spent 80 grand on cars in the last 5 years and still don't have anything nice that just runs.I'd use your flow test bench mick but I don't really have the time to drive the 60 or so kms over there. I know there are plenty of places in the west but I can't get a hold of anyone at the time I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cousin had the same problem with his vy late last year and had to swap to a genuine set.I didn't realize they were fake at the time but I do now.Is there anyway I could check to see if one of them is jammed open cos that seems to be the case. After is ran I checked the plugs and cylinder 6 was covered in fuel and so was the top of the piston. Plus there is a fair bit of fuel coming out of the turbo between the gaskets.Also Mick, doesn't white piston tops mean the engine is running lean?

Compare to other injectors. Also pull coils out and earth them and see that they fire well.Has this been scanned for codes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
