Does anybody know how to test the injectors to see if they leak. Im losing pressure in my fuel system.
Thanks

Are you loosing pressure while running, or after shutoff?
I'm not too good with CIS, but I was under the impression that a leaky injector will give you a significant rich condition on one of the cylinders, and a nice puff of black smoke at startup. |

pull them all out, put them into containers, jumper the fuel pump. If any of them drip, they are leaky. If they all drip, something else is wrong(or they are all leaky which is pretty unlikely)
