reoccuring problem???

91 camaro 3.1
i have to change my spark plugs around every 2 months because they foul out and my fuel consuption has gotten worse. ive changed almost all my sensors and a ruptured fuel pressure regulator. im wondering if i should look somewhere else.. im planning on pulling on my injectors and checking them, never done it before. know its pretty easy just check across the points. but what should they be reading and not reading?? and is there anything else to look at while im in there??

Re: reoccuring problem???

You need to read resistance in ohms about 16ohms for the injector coil.
Check them cold and hot, but this will discover only a possible electrically faulty injector, those that pass the resistance test my fail a flow/pattern test.
If they are all fouling immeadiately after installation, the problem is common to the fuel delivery/control system.
