Are you doing fuel injectors, then?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Wow... if i told you what i had to go through the past few months... my MKT has been off the road since we last spoke.

I had to buy a GDI puller kit... check the injectors... buy 2 new injectors... get the money and then find the injectors. It was a PITA!!!! Not to mention ALL of the other life issues i was dealing with at the time!

but i finally got them.

Now i am in the process of putting them back in... btw... i bought an O-Ring Kit... only to find out that it only had parts for 4 injectors... but luckily, the injectors i bought had rings and seals installed. Gonna have to reuse 2 old clips... oh well!

You mean this?
So... question... HOW important is it to torque to specs? Do i need to buy a torque wrench? lol

On a fuel system, I'd say it's a requirement, not an IF.  Torque wrenches from Harbor Freight work well enough to get by, and not expensive at all.

so... overall update.... over a year later! Replaced the injectors... helped A BUNCH... (at least i can drive it now!) Still have p0020 (ended up replacing it, but code came BACK up) and p0150. Now, I'm working on that

Better late than never!  P0150?  First time I have seen that code mentioned.  Will have to research.
