Injectors - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

kengodfrey · 08-03-2012

I have a 1991 ZR1, 19,000 miles. I recently replaced my injectors. I intended to buy RCI injectors, made the call and the salesman suggested I buy another brand; stainless steel, and looked same as originals. Maybe that was my mistake. I changed out the injectors, with the help of Haibecks video. Everything went as planned. When I first started the car, it misfired for a short time, but when I drove it out of the yard, it started running ok. Now, when I first start it up, after not driving it for a while, i get smoke and rough idling. When I take it out and run it, it seems to run ok. Sometimes it runs rough at idle speed, but ok when i speed up. the insides of exhaust are very black, and i get small amount of black liquids dripping out. Any suggestions?
Thanks, IKen
