NJ wierd injector problem, need help

I was going to start the car the other day and wouldn't fire up. Long story short, the primary plugs were soaked and the secondary plugs were bone dry. The secondary plugs were just recently installed and worked fine so im thinking it is the Microtech.

It is an LTX-12

Im getting a flashing red light and i was wondering if anyone has ever heard of both the secondary injector drivers both failing?


Please excuse my noobness with the microtech

I was also wondering if there was a way to make my other two unused injector drivers work the secondaries.

The secondaries wouldn't be firing at start or idle anyways. Sounds like your flooding it. Need to check everything over real good and possibly pull some fuel out of the cranking map and idle map

Injectors can and do fail wide open. Easiest way to check is to pressurize the fuel system by running the pump and listening for the primary injector to be hosing into the engine. Or pull the primary rail and power the pump up while holding the injectors into the rail. Whichever one is firing out fuel, is the one which has failed.
