latinopikachu Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 How hard was it to change the injectors? I didn't do it, I had a shop do it. It's a brand new car now aside from a leaking coolant reservoir. No misbehaviour and im getting 30-33mpg now doing 70 everywhere with the new plugs and packs. Even with weak/bad cats it's hilariously amazing how efficient the car is now. Hippies would die for this... I can't imagine what it would be like with new cats and o2s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinopikachu Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 I will tell you that although at times I have privately wished for escape from the heartaches and pain the expense of nursing a Miller back to near perfect health brings, that the total work and parts of almost $6k has been very well spent. I couldn't get a car this fun , strong-running and efficient for that money. I only wish more could be rescued like mine instead of sent to the grave far too early... Oh, and is BHRa aware of my 2002 Bose sub, speakers and HU install? Lol.. I now have 11 speakers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 30-33? The fuck? They never got that much brand new from the factory. I think the highest I EVER got was maybe 24mpg, all highway, maybe 55-70mph, windows down but still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

latinopikachu Posted March 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 idk. thats what the OBD app is indicating. they cleaned the entire induction tract and it has new plugs, coils, injectors, air and fuel filters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted March 15, 2013 Report Share Posted March 15, 2013 Oh, so a shitty app huh? how about real world fuel economy and not some hippy shit from apple. Fill up, empty, the tank and do the math Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinopikachu Posted March 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2013 go piss on an electric fence.... i dont have a shitty apple app, it's android Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted March 17, 2013 Report Share Posted March 17, 2013 Myth statement: Urinating on an electric fence can cause electrocution. (Spinoff of Peeing on the Third Rail) Busted/Plausible Upon retesting the myth on an electric fence it was found to be Plausible, but the rail was still Busted. Distance was the factor, as the urine stream breaks up less at the close range needed for urinating on the fence than urinating on the third rail, thus ensuring a direct line of current between one's body and the electrical source.

enginph Posted March 20, 2013 Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 Injector cleaning is perfectly fine and it makes a difference (at 170k). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latinopikachu Posted March 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2013 I really don't see what your gripe is, BHR - all the app does is DISPLAY information reported by OBD! I could be riding around with the special diagnostic thing from mazda connected and drive around all day and it would still just show data being collected by the ECU. Nex thing I need to do is replace the right hand heater hose (the one that runs to a port near/under the battery) and the radiator (I have a small high pressure leak that is spraying into the fans, probably was caused by a small dent/ding when the grille got pushed into it when I had to replace the fender, bumper, hood) battling with the burping is going to be FUNNNN... woooo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Your not getting 33mpg overall. Injector replacement, or a deep cleaning does make a difference, but it will only restore lost performance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

///BHRpowered Posted March 28, 2013 Report Share Posted March 28, 2013 If you were getting average 25mpg I'd be impressed. BRAND NEW I use to average about 220-240miles per tank, fillup around 14 gallons. Mostly city though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
