I just bought a 2000 Isuzu Hombre and when I first start it in the morning it doesn’t sputter at all but after it’s warmed up and I’ve been driving it’ll have a hard start. I replaced the fuel filter and the fuel pressure regulator so my next step was to do the injectors. Thank you for the video man. Super detailed!

Make sure to attach a hos to the fuel line prior to fuel rail that you disconnect from and prime your pump a few times to see is there is any debri in it/flush it out before adding new stuff, there was small deposits and even a small black rock in mine, I couldn't believe it but good this I did because my new injectors would have been clogged. And I'd have to do the process over again, it was not easy

Hi! Thank you so much for taking time to make all the videos for us. Please help me. Here is my issue. I just bought a 2003 GMC Sonoma SLS 6 cylinder Truck . The truck shakes/vibrates really bad once started. You can literally see the engine moving and shaking. It shakes throughout the drive and also appears to shake even more when at stopped light. Just yesterday afternoon, i was at a red light waiting to make a right turn onto the freeway. Once light turned green as i was pressing the gas and turning my steering reel it became hard to where i couldn’t turn it normally and literally suddenly just died on me. Thank goodness there was no other car making a right turn on the far left lane because when my truck steering reel became hard to turn the car went toward the left side. I tried few times to start car and it started and i went to the left turn trying to turn into the 7’eleven parking lot, right when i went onto the parking it died again. This time it took more times until car started again and this time when it felt as if the car is starting i gas it to help turn on. Then i drove just across to Oreilly and the worker scanned car and a code on his machine detected Cylinder 2 misfire. Purchased NEW: Spark plug wire set 6 spark plugs Replaced it on car. Still not resolved. Upon checking the MAF sensor was no good, the distributor has a line cracked on the number 2 . Went back to Oreilly: Purchased NEW * MAF Sensor *Distributor Cap & Rotor Replaced on car with those too. Again NOT Fix still showing code Cylinder 2 misfire. Issue present: 1.Shaking/vibration on car really bad and loud. 2. Check engine light comes on and off (flashing) I do not want to guess on what it is. Can someone please guide me on what to do next that can fix this. **At this moment writing this comment, i am in the car parked at Oreilly debating what to get. ***also when i moved wire on cylinder 2 to 4 and 4 to 2…it still show cylinder 2 misfire even after moving it to 4. Do i get Fuel filter?

@@LostSocketMotorsports so this is the update before i saw your comment. Thought maybe fuel filter so i cleaned it by spraying with throttle bottle cleaner on fuel filter. Car still started and upon driving the check engine light came on flashing again and was still vibrating/shaking. ****i do not know why i did the next step But i removed the distributor and the shaft to check if i might have sprayed the throttle bottle cleaner on and maybe might messed that up***(and i just put it back) Now car will crank BUT DOES NOT START! Then upon doing research it appears that i might have mess up the distributor timing. I followed the instructions on the TDC and getting dial at 1 in the end. (Did that many time!) then check the pressure on cylinder 1 and there was compression. Now its showing code P0446 and crank but no start. Car still doesn’t start. FYI i am no mechanic i am just a girl trying to get the truck to work. Please help!

@@passion4vintage559 that's a tough one. That code has to do with the EVAP system and shouldn't make it not start. I would do 2 things. Google "common issues P0446 Chevy" and see what common causes of that code is and also do a compression check on all cylinders. As for the not starting, did you put the plug wires back on the correct cylinders?

The injectors I suposed need to be lined up just like the came off .and the injectors "push"back in to the cylinder head until they "seat"?

yes, the shape of the opening on the head makes it so when you tighten the bolts for the fuel rail, the injectors will sit in please or be "seated".

About to do an injector. Ive got a misfire on cylinder 4 I’ve noticed my 98 does not have a retaining clip where the 2 fuel rail lines meet. Is that crucial to have? Could it cause it to have a misfire?

That wouldn’t cause a misfire, the clip could be crucial but I have never not had one.

Question, what exact symptom hard start did you have? I just picked up a 2.2 S10, ive had V6 S10s before but this ones my first 2.2. Ive never had this problem.with a 4.3. I can fire it up in the morning, but if I kill it, then try to start again, it wont, keeps cranking. Takes a few tries before I can get it to fire up. Im leaning towards a leaking injector as. I cant see it being fuel pump as it runs good after starting, if I was getting bad pressure/delivery from the pump, itd likey run like crap.

@LostSocketMotorsports

Жыл бұрын

it definitely sounds like a leak somewhere, first thing I would do is replace the fuel filter because the pressure regulator is built into the filter and it is supper easy to do. if not it is probably the injectors because they are know to do this sometimes. pump would be if the fittings on the pump were loose and it was leaking there.

@Lost Socket Motorsports alright, I’ll try that. I’m just having trouble getting the bolts started in the whole. I’m sure if I could do that I could get them tightened.

Did you do anything beforehand to depressurize the fuel or anything? Or is it safe to proceed without that step?

@LostSocketMotorsports

17 күн бұрын

The problem the truck was having was that the system was depressurizing itself because of a leak between the fuel rail and fuel injector so no pressure to start with. the pressure shouldn't be enough to worry about if you are wearing safety glasses.
