Default Injectors

I think my old set of injectors knew they are getting replaced. So they had to give me a last minute fit of grief. I went out to head to lunch, started the car, and it is running horrible. It has never done this. Clearly a miss fire, I can smell raw fuel. Pop the hood, and sure enough #3 is not ticking like the others, get my leatherman, whack it a couple times, and it started ticking. Took it a while to clear out, but it started to run on all 4.

I am hoping this fixes my hesitation problem. It is no where near as bad as it was, and I can drive around it now. But I also know how to instigate it. I seriously think it was this crappy injector.
