RE: GTV6 Fuel Injection Blow-up

You popped the plenum off.   They aren't the injectors, they are the air
intake runners.   You can just loosen the hose clamps, place them back on
and the car should run.   Very common occurrence with the GTV6/Milano V6.

Subject: GTV6 Fuel Injection Blow-up


Starting my father's GTV6 produced a loud bang. After that the engine turned
over but would not fire. Sounded like it was revving at 100 rpms, this would
last before a few seconds before it shut itself off. We found that the
rubber connections on the front 3 injecters on the fuel injection system
were disconnected. ( pictures are here www.mathisenmotorsports.com/GTV6/ )
it looked like the whole fuel injection unit had been push up in the front
and down in the back. We were able to connect the rubber connectors on the
front 3 injecters so they just fit. And the engine runs. Any ideas? Any
problems/experiances with this?
Sincerely,
Monty
