ke70-dori Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 picked up myself a ae82 with a 4agze conversion a month back, was going sweet until half way to work one day and it started the sound like a lawn mower. still runs but sounds like running on only 2-3 cylinders and fuel is leaking straight out of the flange between the headers and exhaust. couple of mates think its injector problem of maybe an ecu problem. just wanna know if anyone has any ideas as to what the problem could be? cheers Andrew.

ke70-slider07 Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 If theres fuel coming out of the exhaust seems to me that its not igniting in the cylimder so maybe spark issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fitting o-rings wouldn't cause them to leak fuel, they would just let air leak in. The pintle inside the injector would let them dribble fuel all the time if it wasn't sealing, so it might pay to have them cleaned and check the fuel filter to make sure its not letting dirt through.
