    tbi problem

    Ive been working on the Jeep the last couple of weekends, new throw out bearing, u-joints, etc. but now I have a new problem.


    The last couple of times that I started it, it was running REAL rough. It wouldn't even idle. Sharpe came by and checked the codes and there was a bad temp sensor. I was fixin to leave to get the sensor, but today I started it again and noticed that only one of the 2 injectors are firing. Is there a way that I can test it it see if it is getting signal or to see if it is clogged up??

    did it sit for a while? tap the injector with the handle of a screw driver. it'll start working again, probably.

    not sure about TBI but most FI systems can be checked with a noid light. pretty sure you can borrow them from the parts store and plug it into the harness. if it flashes then the signal is fine.

    it won't rebuild the injector, it's just seals and ****. I've got some extry injectors, send me your address and I'll mail you one?

    Stumble in to the liquor store
    With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
    I know just what I'm lookin for
    Thunderbird will do just fine.

    Let me mess with it a little tomorrow first, I think a little trash got in the o-ring groove. If so I should be fine, if not I will get the injector from you...
