I have been reading that the multec 2 injectors in my '97 vin m 3100 are failure prone. I had all 6 of them replaced about 15 months ago after a second one failed shortly after the first one failed a month or two prior to that...
Since having all six replaced, one has already been re-replaced under warranty.... about 2 months ago.
Now I've got P0 303, no observable spark problem and I'm looking at pulling the plenum again
It is possible that the mechanic screwed me and did not actually replace all six injectors. Since I have no way of telling, I am planning to just replace all six again myself (which will cost me less than paying to have just one done).
I've done the LIM gasket twice on this car (last time with the metal Fel-pro) and am quite familiar with the requirements of the job.
My question:
Can I remove and replace the plenum (and thus the rail and injectors) without disconnecting the throttle body coolant lines and the threaded coolant pipe fitting that goes into the LIM. I've had to replace that sucker before when removing the LIM. I'd like to also avoid the fight with those pesky little coolant lines. Can you take the thottle body off the plenum and lave it in the car while servicing injectors ? Thanks.
Has anyone else had this kind of trouble with these injectors ? The replacements were supposedly new Delphi OE injectors.
TIA,
Mike
