Vader-

You answered one of my posts on injectors (Post: "Engine Guru's please read"). You said that you had experienced the same problem I was describing. I took your advice and sent my injectors to Cruzin Performance. One of my injectors was off by more than 7% and I was wondering what was wrong with your injectors. I haven't got my injectors back and I was wondering if that was why my engine has been missing. Thanks for your info.

GTA,

I had an elusive miss that developed at 18,000 miles. After fighting and chasing the problem around for a season, I sent my injectors off to Rich. I had one that was 16% off, one at about 6% off, and one at about 5%. The rest were within the 2-3% (acceptable) range. The injectors cam back balanced at 1-2% and engine ran like new.

I'm guessing you'll have similar results.
