Entire fuel injection system question/answer
First of all I must say thank you for looking at my post. My DA is running a code 16, which by reliable sources mean fuel injectors. First question, I noticed none of the other codes have much to do with fuel, could it be the fuel pump? I recently took apart my fuel rail (I know I am a newb, it made me feel cool), and I looked at my injectors, I thought for sure I found the problem. One of my injectors pintle caps was broken, but upon further research that doesn't mean anything. I went to a junkyard, and bought an injector off of a b20, however the connector is different on it. I am assuming because this is a OBDII car I got it off of. Are all OBDI connectors the same? Also, I don't think the problem is a electrical one, I am almost sure one of my injectors is bad, as the car seems to not be getting fuel in one cylinder. Is there a sure fire way to find out which one is not working? Or should I run it with a new one and switch them out one at a time? Also if my fuel pump were bad, what is a good way to test that? And finally, my code 16 has put my car in limp mode, which levies a 3.5k redline. After I fix the problem will it just go away after a reset? Thanks.
if its a code 16 its one or more of your injectors..since the car is at least 14 years old id replace all the injectors with new ones..ones for that car

yea a code 16 is a fuel injector cut and dry...it could possibly indicate other problems but thats the code

How do you suggest I get 4 new injectors? At oriellys/twilight zone they want about 90$ a piece, pretty sure I can get better than that.
