Message	plugging them in does not damage them. Something was already wrong with them. There's nothing I could have done with them while installing them that would allow them to work for only 20 minutes. I don't think anyone here has heard of any car killing the injectors after a certain amount of time, while the other injectors work just fine. If it was the car, I had 3 damaged injectors before, now just 2, then the car would have killed the 3rd one again too, but it didn't. Injectors don't get damaged by the car. They get corrosion, they are either good or not (meaning they work sometimes). The fact that they worked at first only means they were installed correctly, it has nothing to do with whether they are good or not. Even now when I let the car cool down for a while, they work for a few minutes again. So the car didn't kill them. It must have to do with expansion and temperature of the engine, because once it warms up they stop working again, and that's probably why they worked the first time when installed. The car couldn't have caused that.
