Considering I've built seven 5.4L 3V and about 35 (not going to run through the records and search, but suffice to say it's close to three dozen in the past two years) 4.6L 3V, I think I'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about. Now...if you would actually read my post, I was talking specifically about running engines and flooding the cylinder like a prior poster had stated. That's not possible unless you have a fuel rail the size of a garden hose and a three Walbro 190 lph pump setup (run in series-parallel).

Get my drift now? c-burke9 didn't have any problems understanding what I was talking about, so why with all of your vast intelligence and experience should you Quintin?

Would you like me to E-mail you the service bulletin that specifically describes this problem in detail?

It doesn't take a genius to figure that liquid doesn't compress. Something's gonna give, and it won't be whatever fluid is in the cylinder.

F-it. It's not worth arguing on the internet about semantics. I say potatoe, you say potato (Dan Quayle)...

Ok... for us non-mechanical types. If these injectors are sticking open when the engine is shut down, is this due to just poor design, or has the injector become so dirty that it just sticks?
