make sure u buy a set of plugs for after the tuning session becasue 1. your plugs are now fouled, 2 they will get worse during tuning

take a long flat head screw driver and put the handle to your ear and the tip on to the injector one at a time each injector should be giving off a clickign sound if they dont then u have a problem in either the wiring or the injector

they're sending in the injectors to clean tomorrow.. since i bought them used, they're guessing its just dirty injectors... i drove from my friend's house to the shop and it didnt throw a CEL till we pulled up to their driveway... but lets hope its just dirty injectors..

well by the way u described ur idle and everything ur def having injectors not opening....

the car will trim out enogh fuel to keep the car at 14.7 with as large as 550cc injectors, any bigger and ull be richer but u wont be sputtering and bogging like u are, right now im on 550cc injectors with my aem fic bypassed till i get to ptuning and can driv eaorund town runnign 14.7 afr in closed loop

yeah it was weird, he was showing me how the car adjusted itself by unplugging the two cylinders that were misfiring (1 and 4) and when he unplugged the injectors, the car bogged a little but when he unplugged one at a time for the two working ones (2 and 3) the car felt like it was about to die... he cleared the code and waited a few minutes and it came back saying its misfiring in cylinder 1... i've always had problems with that cylinder and it went away after i moved the injectors around.. i remember swapping cylinder 1 and cylinder 4 injectors to see if it threw any code and yup, now injector 4 has a problem as well as injector 1.....

dont know if all that made any sense lol...

he was messing around with the afr to see if it made any difference but it was still sputtering so he came to this conclusion that it was dirty injectors... at first the map was set to -50 and he brought it back up to where my afr was 14.7 but it was still acting up...
