one injector not working on holley tbi

OK i know its not about my camaro but it has to do with my K5 Blazer and my new holley tbi. First of all i didnt get the pigtail for the injectors so i cut and spliced it all in. The problem is that my pass side injector does nothing at all. I dont know if it has to do with the connection on the cap and the little prongs or what.. I tried switching plugs for the diff sides and the pass side still didnt work so i think it mat actually be the injector??? Any help is appreciated

Its a strong possibility that it may be the injector. What resistance do you get from it? From the sound of it the injectors are those old style ones so swapping a stock pod on might be a good idea.

Probally th einjector, I have had two of mine go out. A tip, if you go to a parts store you can get a replacement injector at autozone or such if you ask for a 88 dodge Dakota, V8 injector. th eholley utilizes Mopar injection.

I had the same problem on a crossfire TBI Z28. After trying a different injector, checking fuses and everything else, it turned out my cars computer was the problem. I repaced it with a new one and everything was fine.

Well i just went outside and switched wires from the diff injectors and my wiring is fine because the pass side still wont work. This is a new throttle body but i think i have the old style injectors(half sphere black cap) I dont want to swith pods because my other injectors are shot and they look different anyways. How can i get this injector out??
THANKS

Take the top part of the pod off and use a screw driver to pry up on the injector. I use two screw drivers so that I do not dig into the TBI casting. Use one as a brace (lay flat) and the other as a pry. Don't lose any of the little washers that may come out when you remove it.

You should ditch that thing and use your stock pod with some good injectors on the holley base. Those ones in there now are nothing but trouble.
