Ok, well i have an odd little question to ask-



What if you swapped the connectors on the primary injectors up? What problem would it cause? any symptoms? Like put connector 1 on primary inj #2, instead of #1.. that type deal... any thoughts?

as long as you do not swap the secondary and primary plugs you are ok. i have seen someone try the plug switching on the primaries and it made nodifference. they are fired as injector one and injector two and either could be either because they are the same and fore the same....

it might idle a little wierd and have maybe a flat spot in the low rpms ranges, but it other wise should run fine.

well when i put the engine back together, the primaries don't exactly stick to one spot, its easy to mix up the plugs... so i was just wondering if it would have any ill effect.. my car idles REALLY high, usually 1500-1800 rpms and sometimes around 800-1000rpms... its odd.. and wanted to know if the primary plugs being swapped around might solve this problem.. the PFC is set for a low idle.. 800rpm... so its odd...?

the wireing harness should have markings on them, to determine which if for the front.

if the car idles that high, you might want to check for vacuum leak.

ttrx7 pete.. my car is showing just about the sme symptoms as yours. except i DO somehow blow caps off of lines, CRACK silicone lines, blow lines, almost everyday (makes me learn the disassembly of the engine better i guess... ), i also have a pfc and my idle is also set at 800. and it DOES jump like yours does.



as a solution, i dont know exactly, im tearing down my upperintake AGAIN ( 3rd time this week ) to see if there is anything causing my idle issues, but i figure my car runs fine (unless another line gets messed up) and the idle shoudnt worry you that much... if youre still breaking it in, the pfc does some odd stuff as u probablly know....
