I had a dead injector in #2. No spray at lower pressures when the others sprayed, then at higher pressures it just dumped a stream into the engine. Made for bad idling and rich WOT.

I swapped some injectors in and out, and found that the pressures must be unequal in the injector lines, because the same line sprays a little with just the pump running, no matter which injector is there, new or old, and those ijectors do not spray on any other line.

I reduced the pressure a little by removing a 1/2mm shim from the fuel dist, but the #2 injector still sprays.

Is there one lien that is supposed to be a little higher pressure than the others? Can I correct it? Are fuel dists interchangeable between car makes VW/Audi/Volvo?

I'm waiting to bid on a k-jet cis manual.
