Have all 3 codes P1200 Powertrain, P0135 O2 sensor Bank 1 sensor 1, and P0304 cyl. 4 misfire.

Have so far replaced spark plugs and wires (needed it) but codes have returned.

Get a blue smoke from tailpipe after short run on highway. Lots of stumbles. Smells very rich.

Thinking maybe a bad injector? Checked electrical connection for injector, it was fine.

Do I replace Cyl.4 injector with new? or get 6 new injectors?, or jump up to 42# injectors?.

First your thoughts on problem, then which solution.

Thanks

You might try swapping the injector with #6 and see if the code follows. You can also use a DMM to test the resistance across the two injecor pins, and compare it to the others. If it's reading abnormal resistance or open circuit then that's reasonable to suggest the injector is bad.

Unless you're planning some performance mods, I see no reason to use anything but a stock replacement(s) sensor.

thanks Matt. when I started to remove the injector electrical connection on Cyl.4 I found that it was very taunt. During upgrade I had incorrectly run the wiring harness creating tension on that injector's connection. Rerouted the harness correctly, cleaned Elec. connections on fuel injector. Code is gone

Code has returned. P1200 and P0304. Going to swap injectors to test them. I hope it is not a burned valve or chipped piston.
