    Whos the best at rebuilding injectors?

    it looks like rosewood actually has a better price on the budget, stock rebuild anyhow... edit: just noticed their disclaimer... The Budget Build is typically just a starting point for the older '94 - '97 injectors. We have found these injectors are usually in very poor condition and turn...

    Whos the best at rebuilding injectors?

    idk about the delete, i will look into that. i was reading on one of the popular vendor's website in their tech section and it said that if theres no CEL or codes that buzz test is a moot point, because any issues there would trip a code... is that incorrect?

    vague question of the day...

    Update: the mechanic found that the ebpv was stuck in the closed position. So he got it freed up and more power came back. I had him change the oil (it was nasty) and im gonna drive it a bit to see if it helps clear up the miss.... If not, i will take it back to him and he will chase it further.

    Whos the best at rebuilding injectors?

    just heard from my mechanic and he said the wastegate was stuck shut (i think hes actually talking about the flapper thingy in the exhaust housing), they got it freed up and helped it a bunch! gonna have him change the oil and filter and pick it up tomorrow. hopefully hes got me taken care of.
