Message	I have 3 injectors out of spec out of nowhere (car hasn't been driven in weeks). #1 is 6.5 #3 is 37.5 #6 is 85 I just replaced #2 a month or so ago, so it makes sense "when one goes they all go" basically. My dad doesn't want to believe me when i tell him they're dead! lol. I pull the coil connector and no change in idle.. but with a long screwdriver you can hear the injector (good or bad) click.. so he thinks the injectors are just dirty. But they're out of spec.. so they're DEAD, right? Please convince my dad once they're out of spec the injector is toast haha. thanks.
