Careless Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I know. it sounds stupid. I guess I fried the regulator on my Z31's alternator when I hooked up the terminals on the charger opposite of the global standard for positive and negative (hey i was in the garage for 8 hours straight and went crazy). SO anyways, my battery is SUPER charged at 18.5 volts and I just left the driving lights and accessory switch on in the car to waste the battery out. I'll recharge it in the morning. I don't want the battery boiling up to the point where it explodes and spews ♥♥♥♥ on my engine bay. Now my middle bank driver side injector is fucked. car was idling at 900rpm @ 15 degrees last week when I fixed the timing, and lightweight flywheel will increase idle rpm at proper timing. But I checked the voltage output across the dead injector's clip and it was at a SOLENOID SEARING 16 - 18 volts. So now the car idles poorly, has a miss, and it's going to take out the rest of the injectors if I don't fix this one and the alternator problem. Is there anything short of fixing the alternator and changing the injector that I should be doing before tackling this? Thanks doods.

Careless Posted January 24, 2009 Author Share Posted January 24, 2009 i know. thanks for the sympathy. much needed at this point. i am gonna apply for my passport and try to make it down to Branson Z fest, but i need to get this thing in tip top shape before crossing into the "oh you're from Canada and you don't know anyone around here? that ball joint costs 500 dollars" zone.

woldson Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Just remember, your dollar is worth more here now. Funny never thought I'd see that day. If you got a buck or two, I'd be buying here, were in a deflationary state right now. So for you everything would be like 30-40% off at standard price.

z-ya Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Did you pull the injector plugs on each injector one at a time? This will tell you if you have a fried injector or something else was damaged when you cross connected the charger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
