It is funny how long it took and how long the car sat but, they are in!

Okay I've got them in.

I put in new injector seals along with them. The plastic 'sleaves' were in perfect condition so I did reuse them.

The difference was immediate after the second start.

The first start barely happened. It took three tries for the injectors to "spray" to life so to speak.

The problem I have now is the car idles poorly, sounds like it is on 5 cylinders and accelerates weakly from a stop.

I only drove the car around the block though.

What do I do from here? I have checked all the connections. I don't have any leaks. Will this be temporary until the injectors finally 'pop'?

I am wondering what to expect here.

The car came up to temperature fine and it starts perfectly and very strongly.

Weird thing, the idle is perfect for 30 seconds and then it sounds like I've got one cylinder that is not firing ?

I am looking for some tips, stories anything you can offer guys.

Many thanks!

Sincerely,

Michael McKinney
