many causes hack a proper teck would monitor fuel pressure injectors may be leaking


lmfao


backyard hack sez " why fix it rite the first time ?"

A leaking injector will most likely not be picked up be watching fuel pressure. But could be watched by using an ignition scope. A "proper tech" would know how a rich or lean mixture will effect the voltage out put and time of duration of the coil. Being that you have a "pickled herring" would know that.

lmfao hey a scope that does a leakdown test lmfao U GO GIRL

hurc ast

it sure does good thing you are not licenced what happens if all injectors leak? lmfao u wont make it flate rate

hurc ast

Real easy to see by a number of symptoms, but in the real world not likely.

Have for 30 years. You claim to be a Ford Master, forget the lesson on basic and advanced ignition? I thought your were a master, that's what you claim. Are you going to claim that an over rich or lean mixture is not going to affect the scope pattern? Is that what your saying? Are you going to say that only electrical concerns will change a scope pattern? Are you going to say that you can not see with an ignition scope high or low resistance in the secondary circuit? Are you going to claim that fuel mixture, among other things like relative compression will not affect the pattern on the scope? So come on girl, show how a scope can not show a mixture problem with a cylinder.

">>>

What you actually have to use your brain? No come back? Hard to argue against physics isn't it? Come on "collage boy".

buy the time u hook up your scope the fuel pressure wpuld have already leaked down lmfao can your scope tell you the fuel pressure and rate of leakage too?? case closed

lmfao

A leaking injector will not show up on a running engine with a gauge, the fuel pump has more than enough flow to make up for a leaking injector. A fast discharge of fuel pressure on a engine not running is not inclusive of a leaking injector. The fuel pump check valve could be at fault, just to name one.

The fuel pressure leaking down is a false premise introduced by you. The original problem is that the truck is running rich. I can think of a whole lot more productive ways to approach a rich running engine than by using a fuel pressure gauge to watch for pressure leak down, especially since there is no complaint of extended crank time on start up.

False premise.

lmfao the concern was the pressure regulator lmfao so we will scope it lmfao U GO GIRLS

hurc ast

No, that's just another false premise on your part.

Just because you don't know how doesn't mean it can't be done.

hack already pulled the plugs whats the scope goiing to tell u that u cant see?

hurc ast

Well, if that's the case, what is your fuel pressure gauge going to tell you that "u" can't see?

You're like a dog chasing it's tail.

Twice as fun though...

lmfao try the root cause lmfao u go girl

hurc ast

what a wannabeeeeee lmfao

U GO GIRL

hurc AStttttttttttt
