ya the funny thing is i ran the latest injector tester on it and it came out fine. and that was only a few weeks ago. but we'll see tomorrow. now if someone could help me with understanding the injector pwm problem that would be awesome. cuz having my car buck like crazy when i let off the gas at 2000 - 2500rpm is a little embarrassing

so monitored my car last night. the pwm was still dropping to 0.99ms which isn't good and i was getting knock at idle and while driving. so took some snap shots and the tech ordered me 4 new injectors with sleeves all under warranty of course. should be here tomorrow.

I hope you get that figured out asap. There's nothing worse than having paid so much for something then have it not work

ya i know. well we'll see if the new injectors fix the problem. if not then i got to start trying to find a vacuum leak which isn't fun. thats the only other thing that could be causing this. either that or i have a hole in my intake which i don't think there is but ya never know. just pissed me off so much cuz last night after the new calibration i drove it fine, did a few harder pulls and nothing, this morning, lunch and on my way home nothing. go to leave for my night job and bam there's the little ****** taunting me.

does it happen when the engine is cold or hot or just whenever?

so far, the light has only come on when the engine's hot. but like i said i ran it for about a day after we reloaded the ecm calibration and it ran fine, did some hard pulls and nothing and then tonight on my way to work i did some 4000rpm shifts and bam there's the light

so the new injectors didn't do anything. so through deductive reasoning its got to be a hole in the intake or a leak through the manifold as i haven't touched any of the other vacuum lines and thats the only other thing that i can think of that would be causing it to run lean would be added air that the maf isn't calculating for
