ticking noise after cleaning injectors... should I worry?

KansasRam1997 · Apr 27, 2016

Took out all my injectors and cleaned them individually with carb & choke cleaner... after putting them back in 1) i notice a little more power 2) also the truck shakes more at stoplights while idling 3) there's a noticeable 'tick' sound coming from one of the injectors it seems like. Should I be looking out for anything in particular? thanks

How did you clean them? I'm betting you have injector leakage now and it's causing a misfire

I found the solution, the engine was throwin misfire codes real bad... went under the hood and noticed one of my spark plug wires were off my distributor! I must of popped one off on accident when I replaced my Idle Air Control valve... I feel dumb lol

Don't feel too bad. We all make mistakes this one was an easy, easy fix.

Good to hear it was something really simple.

7 cylinders always feels more powerful than 8.
