I'm being sarcastic because these guys think FIC walks on water but he sells a 20 lb injector as if it's 22. Not to mention GM used different pressure for different years as I've already explained.


Your injectors need to ohm 16 or within 1. A job worth doing is worth doing right. Replacing one injector will most likely create an unbalanced fuel delivery system. Your choice though.
So your say this ohm's are all different so i should buy a set.
#1 is 1 ohm, driver side 3,5,7 is 22 ohm, pass side is 16,19,20,21 ohm. Am i catching on yet. If you answer YES then i gotta wait for a couple more pay checks.

I can reset the flowrate to 20 and they'll work.
I don't understand the run lean point. Besides why buy new when you can get reman?

There was no point because it was sarcasm. I was simply pointing out that FIC knowingly sells a 20 pound injector as 22. While the ECM can make up for most of it they will experience hesitation in open loop and a hard start.

They flow 204 cc's and not 232 that is 22 lbs. The blind allegiance on this board to FIC amazes me. I used to use him telling people to make sure and get 0280-155-715's that flow 24.4 lbs. I switched to another guy due to many substitutions.
