This morning while driving to work my car started to act like it was firing on 3 cylinders. I pulled off to the berm of the road and my car threw a CEL so I plugged in my logger and got error 41.

I checked under the hood to see if maybe one of them had somehow came loose, and noticed fuel leaking from I believe the injector nearest the timing belt. The bolts to the fuel rail were tight. I'm going to replace the insulators, seals, and o rings to see if that's my problem.

My questions is, would I just get that error because of a leaky seal? I know it could be the injector itself leaking but all the fuel was under the rail. I'm going to check the resistance too. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
 
Solution
Pulled the fuel rail and one of the injectors had lost a clip, and the plug wasn't down on the injector all the way. Resistance to all injectors was 3, and 80.2 on all the injector plugs. Plus gotta look in my tool box for another clip.

I'm going to go get new o-rings and Home Depot insulators and hope that this is it.:hellyeah:
