24lb Injectors

mustangurl00 · July 28th, 2011, 02:01 PM

I had some codes pulled at Autozone and a leaky injector came up among other things. What are the advantages of putting in bigger injectors and a matching maf? The company I got the motor from recommended 24lb injectors to get the most out of the motor.

Leaky injector I didn't even know we had a code for that, anyway if you don't have enough fuel for the motor they will help what power are you making

o_O here at my dealership ive never seen a code pulled for leaky injectors, but thats autozone for u. anywho id say if u ordered a motor and they said 24lbs would be best id prolly put those and matchin maf ... might aswell if ur going to have to replace your "leaky" injectors ^_^

P1132 cause could be a lack of bank 1 O2 transitions, rich; leaking fuel injector bank 1; egr stuck open;engine mechanical condition.

ESG: I haven't dynoed my car yet so Idk what kind of power it's making as of now.

How long has the engine been in your car? you could throw that code because something in the new engine is out of spec for OEM engine

do you still have an egr with an aftermarket motor?

do you have O2 sensors? if not, you won't have any bank transitions, don't assume its the most expensive fix right away

yes i still have an egr valve and O2 sensors. i'm also getting a popping or backfiring going on which is from the defective egr or oxygen sensor.

True I could go get it tuned if I had the money for that right now. I know that is a main factor in it running right and performance.

describe this "popping or backfire"

Better get the money for a tune than getting the money for another engine.

I'd like to know what you guys do for a living because you all make it sound like money just grows on trees. I'm a fulltime student with rent and other bills. I'd rather fix a small problem before creating an even bigger problem. If I had the money to get my car tuned asap believe me it would have been done long ago. I don't even know if the injectors are the problem. It's just a probable cause.

Hmmm...kinda hard to describe, but whenever I start the car, driving, or decelerating it backfires or pops. Have you ever crossed up your spark plug wires or even seen Uncle Buck? Kinda like that but but not quite as bad as the Uncle Buck example

I'm a physical therapy assistant student. I worked at Pep Boys until May. Currently, I work PRN at a local hospital so money is tight for me right now because I'm looking for a more steady job. If I could do everything I wanted to to my car right now I would.

Still say it would be better to try and gather 500$ for a tune instead of having the whole motor wasted. Even a mail order tune (if you don't have that)
