vs missing on petrol - Aussie V8 | Holden - Ford

Jimmyboy · 12-08-2006, 03:34 PM

Hey guys, our vs duel fuel cracked a radiator and overheated. I've repaired it started it on petrol and ran like a dog.I thought a head gasket let go but oil and coolant are still behaving.Switched to gas and she runs fine. Would it be a blocked injector? and how do I test that theory with the motor running? ie can I pull of the powerwires to each injector in turn?
cheers Jim

could also be a fouled plug.. you can pull the plug leads/injector wires in turn and when one is pulled and makes no difference, thats the problem..

good luck with it

take the injector leads off one at a time (saves getting bitten by plug leads an also isn't good for your coil pack) the fuel pumps are also an issue on those
