IT COULD BE A BAD CONNECTION BUT JUST TO BE SURE, ASK YOUR LOCAL GARAGE TO DO A SPILL OFF TEST. IF POSSIBLE SPRAY SOME RELEASING OIL OVER THE BOTTOM OF THE INJECTORS THE NIGHT BEFORE YOU TAKE IT TO THE GARAGE AS IF THE INJECTOR IS FAULTY IT WILL NEED TO COME OUT AND FROM BITTER EXPERIENCE I CAN TELL YOU THEY DONT LIKE TOO. A RECON INJECTOR SHOULD COST NO MORE THAN £90
