- SYMPTOMS OF A LEAKING FUEL INJECTOR
In this video we will explain the symptoms of a leaking fuel injector. Leaking fuel injector is very easy to fix by replacing the fuel injector or by cleaning the injectors but if you do not fix leaking fuel injector on time you may damage your engine. Leaking fuel injector will cause fuel to wash out the oil on the cylinder wall which can result in worn engine or even broken piston rings. In addition if you do not fix leaking fuel injector, the gasoline will make its way to the oil pan and it will dilute the oil which could be catastrophic for your engine. Leaking fuel injector could damage oxygen sensor and catalytic converts too so it is important that when you experience the symptoms of leaking fuel injector to fix it as soon as you can.

2 all the haters. if you dont have something good 2 say.. dont say it. Good video! keep it up!
Guys. This was great guys. Probably helpful to alot of guys this one guys. Guys, i think i am having a problem with sealing the intake manifold to the cylinder. Atleast that is the only thing i have touched guys. I took it off to replace the o-rings and gasket for the injector. And guys,now i cannot get it started, I have tried different types of grease to perhaps improve the seal. But to no avail. Guys, i do not know any other guys to discuss this with,so i am just putting it out there to you guys. I have made an appointment with some guys at a workshop, so it probably will get fixed. Sure guys, i was hoping to fix it myself, as a wannabe motorcycle diy guy, but now guys, i am not capable anymore of imagining what can be wrong or how to fix it. It is a 125cc. big moped. Injector works guys. It gets fuel. There is spark. Motor turns guys, but will not ignite. Plug is a little bit wet, but not much. Guys, this is exremely frustrating. I so just want to ride you guys. Therefore the workshop appointment. But i still want to understand what could possibly be the problem guys. Any advice on how to proceed or any thoughts on what might be the problem would be highly appreceiated. Guys. Thanks.
Ignition Timming not set correctly, check it
CEO of "Guys" :P
You guys
Hi guys
You answered all my questions with my symptoms I am having! I will just have them replace all my fuel injectors sense it’s got 200,000 miles thanks for the video and detail explaining
Wow this was good to know! Glad I only had my truck running for a short time but still , I’m checking my oil !
This is a very helpful video. Your explanation has all the right info and you kept the video short and concise. Much appreciated, thank you!
really good explanation, I decided not to drive due to explosion possibility and hydro lock chance, and to add this one thing it is possible to have a rotten egg smell when you get unburned fuel
😬 thankful i stopped playing with my car and shut it off because it was the outside leak. Thank you for the knowledge. I just needed the breakdown of the rail.
Thanks for all your professional hard work. Has helped me fix many cars with your advice!! 🎉
My mechanic needs to watch these videos
New drinking game: take a shot everytime he says guys lol
Just click on thumbs down everytime he says guys
He says it 15 times in the first 45 seconds. You'd die!
Just constant chugging
😂😂🤣🤣😂
Yeah distracting and annoying.
Very informative i am going to do an oil change after I replace them aswell
great vid thanks for taking engines apart so we dont have to!
Thanks guys
Excellent video i have toyota vvti petrol engine how can i check this
Good video. 👍
Ths video is helpful!my car mixes petrol and engine oil I think it's because of indjrctors 2
Very informative thankyou very much. God bless you.
Stop saying “GUYS”... dear god
Come on Guys!
Ok guys😂
Great tips.. ❤️ from India
Very helpful! Thanks.
My 2.3 engine starts with very high revolutions in the begining (Much more than normal when cold) then after about 30-45 seconds will ease down and it will start to stall, I pulled all the cables and spark plugs and one spark plug is wet in gas, I also can see the piston top wet through the hole, but the weirdest thing is that the Injector to that wet piston and spark plug makes the normal clicking sound when running. Is it possible that the injector stays open spraying continuosly even it clicks? And does it stay open and dripping after the engine is turned off and that is why the high start in the beggining Because of the combustion caused by excessive gas in that piston??
Yes it's absolutely possible that injector is leaking despite clicking when powered, and of course it still leaks even when the car's turned off, cos there's still pressure in the fuel line...
Thanks dude!
Very well explained.
Good one!
thanks i know enough when i get help tomorrow :D
Thanks
Great video.Do we get DTC if fuel injector leaks?
How would you get the gas out? I have a Acura RSX and I believe this is my issue.. got a missfire code and sometimes it's hard to start like it needs to build pressure.i changed the spark plugs and I just got some injectors. I hope this fixes my issue. No smoke just struggling idel.
I promote US $0.01 for everytime the word "guys" is pronounced. Very short time this channel will be worth billions.
Even faster, every time he says R
have a question. i smell gas when i start my 2000 durango v.7 with 230k miles. i smell it when it a cold start. i aslo have an EVAP code-(small leak). any ideas?
Is itveaay to smell diesel 9n it ? I have my recent old oil maybe I could get it checked for contamination? I've had misfires etc well rough 8dje it's a 2.2 d skyactive cx5 I cleaned egr and map , map was very clogged
Thanks
Is it true that when the engine is cold the oil will settle at the bottom of the engine which will give you inaccurate oil level readings. Thanks for the video😁
You WANT to check your oil level when all the oil is settled! If you check your oil level right after you shut the engine off, the dipstick will show your oil being lower than it actually is because the oil is up inside the engine.
Thanks 🙏
@@TomBuikema so when do ya check oil level ?
Great 4ever warm up the car, then turn it off and wait 10 mins before checking oil
The best time to check is in the morning BEFORE first start up
I checked the pressure its fine as per toyota
I think I'm having this issue as well. Full blown mechanic like you all but this is an issue I haven't come across yet.
Black smoke on startup
Backfires like gunshots idling after startup
High rpms that drop to nearly 300 or stall
Severe misfire and loss of power
Flooring equals white smoke from the tail pipes
Brand new headgaskets, head bolts, coolant, oil
Injectors tick as they should but my oil smells gassy. I think this may be my issue
It only confused me because the care was running fine and then 20 mins later it's been doing this.
Trying injectors tomorrow
please I need help !! my car audi a3 1,4tfsi does not work quietly at the first ignition !! the exhaust stinks of unburned gasoline. error reported by p2188 system too rich at idle bank 1. the oil level in the engine has increased slightly and stinks of gasoline.these explosions in the engine happen only when it is warm and at the first ignition. the car engine shakes while idle for 20-30 sec and then runs quietly. I am interested in whether the injectors are in question or hpfp. to note that the injectors are cleaned by ultrasound.THANKS
So I have been having a problem for a bit only on bank 2, I have new cats new o2 sensors, new plugs on that bank. Still high mv on O2 - Stumble at idle, If I pull my rail and pressure up the system will I see the leak, is there an easier way. My fuel pressure is perfect. I think its one of the injectors.
I have a big stress just today I took the fuel injector to clean mine is 2017 year Hyundai Elantra the fuel gas leaked all over intake cover inside and around I lost one rubber thingy around injector so I left for a day I'm not sure after cleaning the mess with piece of cloth around will it be safe to drive while gas fell around outside.
Can this cause overfueling at all ? And a engine code o2 sensor stuck running rich p2196 at all ? Changed my lambda and cat sensor plus map, maf. Fuel sensor etc still getting this code pop up :( cheers guys
Is it one signs is the smells like gasoline in the motor oil? 4.7L v8
Yes plus oil lookes watery super thin and smells of gas too on a dipstick. ...its happening to my x5 02 now .cought it in time before it ruined my engine thank universe...now replacing injectors tomorow and hope it starts running like BEFORE and code rich gas bank 2 p1093 goes away
Can a basd injector cause a p0131
Can a leaking fuel injector be why I can smell exhaust fumes when I turn my fan on? Thanks for any replies.
Hello. I am not a mechanic, neither do i have much experience. But i am ionterested. So here goes. I think it is not likely. I cannot see how that would produce the smell of exhaust, but interesting to think on. They are two separate systems. Fuel-line and a/c. Nonetheless, the fuel needs to go through combustion for it to be exhaust I am not sure how the fresh-air intake functions, but this sounds to me like a small exhaust leakage in the engine compartment somewhere. Manifold or other connectionpoints. My guess.
I’m working on a 2015 Ford Explorer 3.7 engine and gas is entering the engine so after watching this video I will remove and clean spark plugs blow gas out and I will replace all injectors O rings hopefully this will take care of the fuel issue inside engine
Great video and good information thanks
It means you have an exhaust leak
Can this cause a rich condition at idle? I'm getting negative 15 to 20 on both short and long term and once I accelerate it goes to negative 10 both short and long term. Thanks zero codes and Honda element.
same issue with my civic si, let me know if u found the issue
@@CYRRYANC97 so I got the trims to go to negative 6 at idle and all I did was adjust the valves. Took off the valve cover and it was an easy job, they were tight. I still think I'm running richer than what I want. But it's a lot better.
@@paquesepas6696 huh, I did my timing chain a few months ago (400k civic) and adjusted my valves to spec and the issue continued. unless I went to tight but I was under the supervision of a mechanic so i doubt it.
@@CYRRYANC97 yeah that's all I did differently. I asked around and TH-camr pine hollow told me that it's possible for the valve adjustment to have helped me.
I had a hard to start when warm problem on my 2006 Altima 2.5. turns after replacing multiple parts with no luck it was a leaky fuel injector.
The injectors in my engine where stuck in so I used penitrating oil and a blow torch plus slide hammer to remove them. The car is now blowing white some from the exhaust. Could I have damaged the injectors inside with the heat?
Uh probably. I don't think they are made to be heated with a torch
@@caryhuffii7224 new injectors it is then 😂
I have NON fouled out plugs (plugs look fine) BUT i have too much gas in oil... any ideas? engine runs good. Im wondering if it has a partially stuck open or sticky injector? My mechanic sprayed brake fluid thru all the injectors...still getting too much gas in oil
If your getting gas in your oil you more and likely have bad piston rings a leaking fuel injector will only make you run rich and occasionally misfire
@@gsc2866 engine has 10K miles on a total rebuild... runs great. I used the injectors from the old engine with 140 K on it. It does run a bit rich, old engine did too & it had too much gas in oil.
@@welcometoreality3450 that's odd I've never seen gas leak into oil unless the piston rings were bad now on a freshly rebuilt motor I've seen gas get into the oil in the first 1000 miles but I hear that's normal during break in. What kinda car and engine do you have ? And have your checked fuel pressure regulator maybe ?
@@welcometoreality3450 well I never had gas leak into my oil from a leaky injector should I say lol maybe you have more then one injector bad I had buddy one time his rings went bad gas mixed in oil ran rough for a while then it just stopped having compression and wouldnt start
i think are you obsesed with the ord ''guys''??
Are you sure the fuel injector is leaking? I think your wiring has poor connection
And white smoke from tail pipe
Said GUYS 6 million 8 hundred thousand 4 hundred 62 times
I have raw fuel collecting on my intake manifold. Could this be a leaking injector?
I would bet that's the problem. Probably where the injector fits into the rail. I'd get this fixed ASAP, it is a fire hazard.
likely a leaking rubber gasket that seals the injector to intake. easy fix
Oring gasket on the injector
Or the fuel rail to injector seal
Did you get the problem fixed? I have the same problem now in my 2012 Audi A7
so IF you don't smell any gasoline on the dipstick and the level of your oil is NOT going up over time, then is it safe to conclude you DONT have a leaky fuel injector?
Search up fuel wash
no. it is not safe to say that. doing a fuel pressure test is something you need to do. rent tools at auto stores
@@Ensource what is the healthy rating for a fuel pressure test? Should it be between 40 - 50 psi at idle?
@@breakaway2x join a group for your car and ask the community. some kits can come with info on cars and PSI readings. but not the one i rented from autozone
on facebook
Are you from Hungary?
All petrol engines dipstick smells of gasoline. 👍 that’s normal
English in pushto..thanks
U say guys 879 times in one video ?
lol, can somebody post the exact times (minute marks) when he actually covers the SYMPTOMS of a leaking fuel injector?
Friendly tip: Quit saying "guys" so much.
Guys
This man's voice bugs me
Good
New Kermit the Frog here... oh wait..
Read about what JESUS did this is mine blowing. Can you believe this, did you ever hear of this about HIM
