This is a link to my car below. I don't have a manual to this car. This is my daily driver. I love driving it, but it shakes back and forth during gears. It BARELY works going up hill. When I went to San Francisco forget it. I was scared to roll back into other peoples cars. It dies a lot and has a rough idle that dies out as well.

Below is a video of the ecu reading out code 16 fuel injector.

I am also getting bad gas mileage. Full tank I barely get 200 miles. How much would injectors cost and where are they located in the car? Any pictures I could see please? believe it could be the fuel injector or pressure regulator after loking at a manual I got online. I think it's the injector because tha is what the led is showing.

I removed the hazard fuse waited 10 seconds ( manual says to.) Turned the ignition switch to on. The engine started and I still recieve code 16.

I don't have a stehoscope to check to see if the injectors are clicking at idle. Also I don't know how to check for ohms. Use an ohm meter?

(they say 1.5-2.5) As well as checking resistance between the two terminals of the injector. I am new to working on cars and don't know how I could do this. Any help or suggestions?

Do I need an ohm meter? And where are the injectors located? Any pictures? Thank you!

I had the same problem, now since your car is a DX, it has DPFI= DUAL POINT FUEL INJECTION. It basically means it uses two injectors to run, A main injector and an auxillary injector. The injector is located on the intake manifold


The injector is the big one with the green top, you can unclip the plug on top of them and look to see if their dirty or blocked, I managed to fix mine by using fuel injector cleaner, but in your case I recommend replacing them and cleaning out your idle air control valve.

Ok thank you very much!! I didn't know if anyone would respond. I appreciate the help! Do you have an idea or know of a way to take the fuel injector out? I would like to do it properly. Do you know what tools I would need for the job? It seems like a hard to reach spot. I don't want to just yank it out and damage parts. Also do you have any brands for injectors you recommend? Thank you again!

Also where is the idle control valve?
