Message So on a budget and after much review I went with the gates barricade stuff. Bought it a bit small by mistake (1/4") but that provided a super snug fit. Anyway in my fuel delievery gremblin hunt and pulling hoses to check regulators and dampeners I notice the inner most barrier of the hose all wrinkly like. I figure it must just be from the tight fit. So I cut back on the hose and it appears ok ish but as soon as it makes contact with anything it shrivels up.... I don't know if its just the gas here in the Bahamas but still I am disapointed.

So I'm guessing my injectors are clogged and I'm pulling the rail tonight to see for myself if they spray while cranking the engine.

Is the click from the injector while rolling the CAS a sure sign that they are opening (they omhed out correct)? And would you be able to simulate this by running a wire from the battery to one terminal of the injector and grounding out the other for a split second?

Thanks
