Leaky injector?

How’s the exhaust mani? They crack and you get a shitty O2 signal.

My 01 gets 17-20 with stock sized tires, but it’s a 5spd with 3.07s, not sure which gearing you’re running. I had an injector fail, but it didn’t leak, it just quit firing. It started and idled pretty well, didn’t really notice until I hit the gas, and I could really notice the miss. I swapped it out with one from advance and it’s been flawless since then.

In the winter, I see 15 or 16. I dunno, check over the exhaust manifold, that’s a big source of trouble on these. The cracked head doesn’t seem to hurt gas mileage at all. You just lose coolant slowly without a trace, then eventually the bitch overheats like a mother and you know you’re screwed.

I tried to check the mani but don’t think i found any cracks, i cannot hear a leak at all and i have the shitty california emissions bs where i have four 02’s and tw osmall cats on the mani itself as well. As far as power lose it does not feel like it at all nor does it have a miss, at idle it a tad jumpy and rough though.
