Phil MC Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Did you try out what I suggested the other night? Maybe even swapping your injectors over to see if it's stuck open?

frankyboy Posted June 1, 2010 Author Posted June 1, 2010 no never checked the injectors gonna do that friday what signs am i looking for to see if there stuck
Wee Jock Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Swap no 2 injector over with any other of your choice, if the injector is stuck no 2 should now be running dry the other the one you swapped it with should be soaking and black! Simples

Simples but will there not still be fuel on it as the fuel rail passes through
john_stevenson2 Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 Frank, have the injectors been out at all ? More likely it's an O ring that's pinched if they have.
Phil MC Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 (edited) When I saw Frankie the other day it was also smelling of fuel whilst only idling, not so good . If it were me I'd be having a look at the injectors as soon as possible, and not driving it in the meantime. There's been a few nice machines that have caught fire recently (Split fuel rail for one of them) and wouldn't want this ending up as another statistic . P.S. Gimme a shout if you need a hand.

frankyboy Posted June 4, 2010 Author Posted June 4, 2010 took the injectors out and 2 seals have broken (prob due to incorrect fitting) so i have now sourced the prob cheers to every1 for there advice.
