Can you explain about the injectors . thanks -
take long screw driver to your ear and touch the tip to the barrel of the injector while the engine is running, if one sounds different than the others, that's the cylinder you need to pay attention to.
also you can start pulling plug wires (one by one) while running and the one that doesnt' change the idle is you suspect.Trees aren't kind to me...

And you dont have to purchase new wires,that wasnt my point. Just make sure the clips inside are properly seating on the posts when you push them on.Some people like to read fiction,I prefer to read repair manuals. Weird I know-

A open in a plug wire can knock out the module and the coil. When the coil insulation can no longer support the high KV of a open plug wire the secondary insulation will fail allowing 45 KV give or take to arc into the primary winding with no where to go except to ground across the board in the ignition module.
A spark tester at the plug end of the ignition wire will find opens and carbon tracks to ground. Plugs have to be inspected as well.
Bosch plugs are awesome! You buy some minnows and use the plugs to hold the bait about 18 inches off the bottom. If it hangs up it is no loss..

Should I just put a new belt while I have it opened ?Comment

I would do what Festy said and see if it stays in time. There is a simple procedure for that belt tention. Do it,and run the car like he said.Originally posted by Dom View PostSome people like to read fiction,I prefer to read repair manuals. Weird I know-
