Do you have the book?

MAP sensor, fuel pressure, injector resistance are all easy tests too.
Interesting question about the old plugs -- they did all look about the same, maybe like they'd been running a little rich but nothing horribly unusual.

What is this book you speak of? Does it hold the secrets to eternal life? Or at least to WVO?

Map sensor -- I don't have one, my car doesn't have satellite navigation. I'll check the rest, though.

(Just kidding about the map sensor. I'll check that too.)

I used to just pull the complete rail up and out but still connected to the feed and return with the upper intake manifold off. Key the car on and let it prime, if the tips get wet just sitting there, they are bad. 6 rebuilt injectors online are like $120.
I'll try that too.
