checking injectors
Can anyone tell me how to check injectors. I think mine are either leaking by or the regulator may be bad. I have an 87 TA 305 TPI.
The fuel pump went last summer so ti has a new AC-DELCO pump & filter is new. I am having trouble starting it. When I start sometimes I have to use the flood mode (holding pedal to floor) or it will crank for a long time. A couple of times I have seen white smoke come from the air filter box when it starts.
I could also use a injector reccomendation if I need to replace them.

I was going to link you to a site, but it said I had too many picture links in it. Check out autozone's site. They have a detailed instructions on how to check them.

That works for injectors, figure skaters, referees (don't ask), and about anyone else on the ice.

But seriously, you need a fuel pressure gauge to test for injector or FPR leakage.
If you determine the injectors are leaking, check www.cruzinperformance.com before you decide to order new replacements. You should have RP/Bosch injectors in your '87, so they are worth the trouble to repair them.
