Hi troops
Had a fun day today trying to solve a fueling issuse on a cossie.
The fault showed up after the re-fitted engine was fired up for the first time.
The car ran smoothly but was throwing fuel out of the exhaust.
Not a bit of fuel, a lot of fuel.
After various investigations into the pumps, the filter, the regulator. it was finally noticed that it was only running on 3 cylinders.
None of us had noticed as it was running beautifully.
After eliminating the injectors from the problem it was found to be that there was a constant 12v at the injector electrical cap of number one cylinder.
Once it was isolated the motor carried on running like a clock, but with out the empty cylinder thowing massive amounts of unburnt fuel through the motor.
So question: The car has had a lot of work on the electrics this year
(the rebulid thread is here:

Does anyone have any Idea what may be the electrical fault that could cause number one injector to recieve a constant 12v?
Many thanks for any input.
Cheers
