Upgraded injector swap problem. Need help
I swapped to the 784 injectors in my jeep. Bought them off a guy on eBay. Supposed to be refurbished and tested. Before I did the swap my jeep would start up right away now it takes a couple seconds to fire up. Could it be a leaking injector that's flooding my motor and if so how do I figure out which one it is. Didn't happen until I did the injector swap. If you have any ideas let me know.

Did they look like new when you received them, and have all new O-rings?
Are you sure that you didn't accidently tear any of the O-rings when installing? If you don't mind me asking how much were they, cheaper than the seller here on the forum?

They were like $70 with new O-rings. And they looked new. And I don't think I did I'll probably pull it off and look tonight and just check them.

Reason I asked was when my son installed his and was having a problem, I kept asking him the same question and he said no.......After 2 weeks he did pull and check them and by now you guessed it.

I've seen a few people on here say their fuel mileage and other minor things suffered after the install until they reset. I installed mine with a 62mm TB, header and intake at the same time, so I definitely reset mine afterwards. If I was experiencing problems after the install and all the o rings are good and everything else is connecting properly, I would probably give it a shot.

Yeah if he installed other critical parts id completely agree. At the same time when working on anything fuel /electrical related you should discharge static and remove the battery terminals which should reset the PCM and allow it to learn the new injectors.
