Very Strange

Ok, as of two days ago, my injectors leaked and caused the engine to be flooded when it was sitting for more the 10 min or so. Soi figured while i am doing the fueltank/fuel pump/rearend swap i would also do the injectors.....well i get the fueltank/pump in and start the car....starts right up...well there as been no pressure in the lines for a day or so. hour later, start it up again, again first kick. I am like, maybe i don't have to swap the njectors...so i let it sit for 15 more min then restart it again, kick over and fires, and for a fourth time fires right up.. what gives? Why all of a suddden does it kick over and start right up? What ever it is, i hope it keeps up....also i bought a NAPA, TruFlow Pump for $54.....sure beats others that are over $100.

still starts up like it should, no extended cranking.
I hope this stays that way.

Hmmm, i don't know what to say. Perhaps there was a little boogie in the injector and it blew out. If i even suspected funk in my injectors though they'd be getting sent to rich at cruzin to get cleaned. In a port injected engine, mixture distribution is all in how well matched your injectors are. You can't get best performance or mileage if they are imbalanced.
