fuel injection probs- coupe gt

[Ameer Antar]

you need new injectors, but make sure there are no vac. leaks ANYWHERE. 
There's not really anything you can adjust in the distributer or warm-up 
regulator. The only screw to adjust idle mixture is the 3mm hex screw 
between the fuel dist. and air-flow valve. But the injectors have to be in 
perfect working order in CIS. If one of the injectors that you cleaned to 
the best of your ability didn't work, the rest are probably in not much 
better of a state. Do all the standard checks while you wait for injectors 
to arrive. you're gonna need 'em in a couple hundred miles anyway, so yer 
better off doing it now.
