Not sure if u can see in the picture but 4-6 injector connectors had a wet oily residue in them. What would be causing this?

Thank a bunch

could be bad injectors. or could be a bigger problem like leaky valves and the compression is forcing the fuel and air mixture up in to the injector... and intake. i would also take the TBI off and look in you intake manifold.

 

Looks to me like something (maybe brake cleaner) was used and combined with heat melted the rubber plug or the plastic on the injector a bit.

 

Dude.... no disrespect.... but no. That is not feasible. For one thing that is the electrical connector... for another if compression was coming back into the intake it would blow straight past the injector and through he throttle body...I don't know how else to put this.....

 

any other thoughts?

 

Dude what do you want...... it is physical damage... instead of sitting there asking for more opinions why don't you go out and either pull em and replace em or suck it up and put it back together and run till there's an issue. There isn't much that can happen to the connector on an injector. Its not in the combustion chamber or the exhaust. THe only thing it is exposed to is heat and whatever chemicals the owner decides might be a good idea to throw at it... you see where I'm going with this?

 

your being a dick for no reason guy how bout you knock it off? this is what forums are for is to ask questions and get ideas. dont get hurt falling off your high horse Buddie.

 

yea its possible trust me. and thats why i said to take off TBI and look in the manifold. how bout you take it down a couple notches.

 

Like I said not meaning to be a Dick... but please explain how that is possible.

 

Op I apologise.... everyone's got their days. Forget I said anything

 

Slick why dont you go and trim your fenders

Thanks lolzjeep

 

You got it. Have fun trying to blow that compression back through your injectors into the combustion chamber where it came from.:-D

 

TO me this seems like fixing something till it is broken.

There is no physical way that oil can blow back up through an electrical connection. Taking off a TB to look into the intake to see what is wrong with a Fuel Injector is like looking in the exhaust to see what is wrong with a spark plug.


If it is working, and not leaking fuel (you would smell it and see it) I would put it back on and run it.

 

Moved to OEM tech.

 

just a thought but i greased all my connectors with no conducting grease???
