Correct
Quote:
Is the misfire gone with the new injectors?
Where did you buy the injectors and what brand are they?
(There are MANY fake/cheap/counterfeit parts available today that cause endless problems)

I got them from Rock Auto. They are a "remanufactured" injector, meaning the were rebuilt and tested by GB Remanufacturing. It is an OEM injector that has been rebuilt by a 3rd party. Maybe I should put my other ones back on with the new o-rings I have, since they didn't have this problem.

Your fuel trims can be seen using any OBD scan tool, even a $10 EL327 and a $7 app will show you.
Just to cover all bases, the fuel trims will tell us if the engine thinks a bank is rich or lean and by how much. Very useful for troubleshooting air/fuel problems.

I have a scan tool, I will see if it has that option after work. Thanks!

From a troubleshooting perspective, what tests did you do that lead you to replace all the injectors?
There are tests that can be done that can tell you which injector is bad or which ignition coil...
AND they are much cheaper than throwing hope/prayers and parts at the problem.

I have replaced spark plugs, swapped coil packs(remained on cylinder 3), cleaned the MAFs, done a throttle body relearn, and now replaced the injectors. I am open to advice, but also kind of hoping the issue will be resolved when I put cats back on it and new O2 sensors.
