Lightbulb Injector diagnostics?????

Yes I used the search button!!!!

When I turn the ignition to the on position I hear a hiss noise for 2 seconds after the fuel pump quits making its usual noise. The hiss is coming from the top of the intake area between the #1 and #3. This started after I blew a hose from my procharger to the intercooler. Do you think this is related.

Is this the sound of a bad injector o-ring??

TIA

Re: Injector diagnostics?????

If you're talking about KOEO, no the problem won't be an O-ring since nothing has turned on the injector yet. Why don't you put a gage on the fuel rail to see what is happening to the pressure when you hear the hissing?

The nice thing about OBDII, if there is any, that you can turn off or turn on any injector with a scanner. My Snap-On CGS does it.

You could pull the fuel rail, and disconnect your coil wire and have someone turn the key over and you could observe your injectors if there is any damage or something isn't normal.

I pulled the rail and inspected the drivers side o-rings. They all looked good but I replaced them since I was there. Is it normal to hear the fuel rail "fill up?"
