Con.Harr91 Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 Pulled the clip on injector #1, no change in idle. That's a relief, I was worried it was #3 again...

Con.Harr91 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 For misfire on #1, yes. Replaced a second bad injector in 30 days for a much improved powerband. Now it breaks up at 3500 rpms, thinking weak coil or bad plight gap? '03 Forester X 5mt - Engine Seized at 262k miles.

Con.Harr91 Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 The plot thickens! Misfire on 1 was gone today, but now its on 2. Car drives the exact same, but I've got a P0302 instead of P0301.
