What's that gap? Looks to be a bit on the big side.

Gap was .060. Put new plug it & it still did the same. Re read ohms on injector #1 read 11.8, #5 read 11.6, but #3 read 305.1 & kept flucuating. So will just have to wait for the injector to come. I am NOT driving it no more though.

UPDATE:

I FIXED IT!!!!

Got the injector in the mail from Andrew about an hour ago. Started working on it immediately. Took the old one out. Put the new one in (already had o-rings on it). Made sure everything was tight and fired it up.

It idled rough for about five seconds because some excess fuel dripped into the combustion chamber, but after that it started to smooth out. I did have some grey smoke at first, but I let it idle for about 5 minutes, and I drove it around the block and the smoke went away. I have all my power back, and it runs more smoother than it ever did. I guessing it was going out anyway.

I give thanks to all you guys for the help and thank Andrew for the Fuel injector.

Glad we could help.

The only other thing I recommend is to check real good around the injectors after the car is shut down and make sure there are no leaks. This is not to bash Andrew, but I would hate to see your car catch on fire due to a used o-ring that is very inexpensive to replace.

I checking after every short drive. So far so good. I noticed that after changing the injector my 1-2 tranny shifts became kinda soft (hate to say it but it kinda feels like its slipping). Did I possibly mess my tranny up driving with that misfire?
