    No, where are those located? Can you reply with a photo?

    I've attached a photo of the wide needle swing I'm getting on the dwell meter. Any ideas as to how I might remedy this?

    I’m picking the injectors are dirty. Unless all spray an equal volume and spray pattern the ECU will chase it’s tail all over the place.
