Re: [DML] Rough running, poor accelleration, think its Lambda related

["Nathan Sobieralski" <valleyrat12@xxxxxxxxx>]

I removed the injectors and jumped the RPM relay. When I depressed 
the AFM slightly some of the injectors would fire and others would 
just dribble. When the AFM was depressed further I noticed that 
while all were firing some were spraying off to the side and others 
where shooting several "streams" in the shape of a cone. Two of the 
six injectors fired in a nice cone shaped mist; I assume that is 
what should be happening? As suggested by another owner I moved 
the "good" injectors to other hoses and noticed that the good 
injectors would work no matter where they were placed and visa 
versa. I assume this means that my fuel distributor is functioning 
properly.
