when I unplug 1 of the other fuel injectors engine runs rough I do this to
the other 3 also,,but when I unplug this particular fuel injector no
change in the engines performance,could this be a faulty injector,this one
was replaced before not by me,,could I have gotten a bad replacement part
also I want to do the repair myself can anyone help explain and is it too
hard to tackle it looks easy enough bot need to know how much of the fuel
rail needs to be taken off

Could be all sorts of things. All you've done is verified that hole isn't
firing. Removing the plug wire would have the same effect but that doesn't
mean the plug is bad. I recall these have a problem with intake gaskets
blowing out?

steve..you think a bad ignition coil could be at fault,,a gasket sounds
like a easy fix..is it?is it a costly repair.today (sunday) I replaced the
fuel injector didn't solve my problem.would a compression test show a
blown intake gasket.and is it worth fixing on a 22 yr old car

I got to ask. What symptoms or problems are there with the car that you
would be do this test for?
