I just replaced the fuel injector gaskets cause they where leaking fuel now the car runs but misfires now???
 
ok ill try that it just all of a sudden misfires
im also getting this bad belt squeel when i first start the car and the aux belt just stops but if i rev the engine a lil it goes away
 
i changed the bottom plastic rings that go on the bottom of the injector with generic ones can this be it?
there is no leaking fuel

i just also replaced my injectors seals today cuae i had horrible boost leak from them, and now the car seems like its hitting fuel cut. even though the car is completly stock except the free mod with the stock boost controller

sorry for threadjacking :)
 
When you say "generic" seals, are you sure you got the right ones?
They may seem like plastic, but they were actually soft rubber at one time OMG
What method did you use to be sure the injectors are maintaining their seal against the head?
Did you damage any of the electrical connectors when you removed the injectors?
 
yea they sealed good and i got the right ones
the car misfires lik crazy and there is like a black water coming out the exhaust
 
yea the car pops at idle and misfires when i rev the engine
should I take the fuel rail apart again and double check everything?
there is like a blackish like water that comes out the exhaust when the car is popping at idle
 
took the car all apart and now its still doing the popping thing drove it out of the garage and now white smoke pores out from under the hood
i think the motor is shot
