fuel injectors?????? help

well when i went to start up my car i noticed it running rough. I looked at the carb and only 1 fuel injector is working. i tried spraying carb cleaner into the carb and around the fuel injectors (carb looks new now lol) anyone have any ideas what i can do to tackle this problem. its a 305 tbi. its the part where fuel sprays intot he carb (thats what im talking about, dunno if im calling it the right things) well the left side sprays just fine where the right side is not spraying at all. when i spray some carb cleaner in the right one the engine starts running clean again then quickly goes back.


does this sound like bad injectors?? anyway to properly clean them??? i think there clogged tell you the truth. i dont think they ever been replaced. please help. thanks guys for he help.

You will probably get more responses in the TBI section. But, check your fuses. You have seperate fuses for each injector in the fuse box.

for future reference, you do not have a carbuerated setup. You have throttle body injection *tbi* which is an early form of modern fuel injection.

It looks like a carbuerator but behaves totally different.

Therefore we will move this from the Carb forum to the TBI forum . . .
