- How to test fuel injectors for pulsing. Learn how to check fuel injectors. I use a screwdriver to test fuel injectors to make sure they are firing. You place a long screwdriver to the base of each injector and put your ear to the end of the screwdriver (like a doctors stethoscope). You should hear constant clicking. If not, then your injector isn't firing or is firing intermittently.
Symptoms of bad injectors are a check engine light with codes P0300 through P0308, misfiring, hesitation, poor fuel economy, stalling, and a poor idle.

My neighbour saw me doing that , he never asked me something since then
Iaf Mehdi by not understanding what ure doing your neighbour might think ure takling to ur car engine :p
your neighbor is nuts
🤣🤣🤣
Someone who asks questions is an idiot for 5 minutes, someone who doesn’t ask questions, is an idiot for life.
@@AAexc66 ...ignorant neighbour "the guy next door thinks he's the car whisperer.. he's nuts!!"
I’ll be honest, I was skeptical but tried it out. One of them wasn’t clicking. Swapped it out and BOOM!! 92 Cadillac Coupe is smooth again. Thanks bro!!!
is it ok to change just one injector?
@tealmountaintrekking6141 absolutely, considering you're smart enough to track down the bad injector. Most people can't, so they replace all of them.
Great videos. I am a mechanic and machinist and its really good to see youngbloods doing it right and doing it for themselves. Also the diagnosis progression you show is really nice too. This is not something you will ever get from a dealer.
***** Thanks a lot man! I appreciate it! I try hard to get the best info out there without rambling on! Fixing cars is a lot of fun!
Hello dnl machine,
My daughter and I are trying to change fuel injectors on her 2003 Honda element.... can you help us,please?
The only thing that one is going to get from a dealer is a car with a bad injector .
Tested the injectors on a silider that's not working, it seemed to click louder and with less frequency than the others, but consistently. The cilinder on that one misfires for sure, may be thats the reason the injectors clicks sound louder but injectors click consistently ..
@vr irregular firing compared to the others is still bad, the coil inside might have high resistance or be damaged to the point that the electrical pulses and thusly the mag field aren't being applied as they should to the injector.
I enjoy how you figured out that you could place the camera against the screwdriver so the audience could actually hear the clicking. Simple detail with a large effect. Well done.
Literally all I'm here for. I'm troubleshooting a cranks, coils good and spark, no start motor and have never done the listen test. Wires and injectors are very hard to access for removal. MIIIIGHT be a wiring issue elsewhere. What to do? I stuff the stethoscope in there and listened -but- guess what? I've never done this before and don't know what it's supposed to sound like. Now I do!
Saved me a lot of digging.
OUTSTANDING VIDEO. I already knew how injectors function, yet I have to give you a lot of praise for going the extra mile and showing people the cross section of an injector with the solenoid.
Hey Chris Fix..
Job well done, NO LIE'S, No BS, Keep up the GREAT WORK.
Just bringing the comments up to 1,000 with this comment
Chris, you're videos are extremely helpful, all of them. Thank you for doing what you do. Cheers brotha.
This was a life saver. I knew it was my fuel injectors but didn’t know how to test it, and which one. This helped out a lot. Thank you
Loved the video wasnt dragged out no bs short sweet and to the point.
That's one of the best things I like about his videos, no bs and straight to the point. Plus everything is on realistic prices.
That's ChrisFix for you. He is THE BEST
AMEN brother

Yep- I subbed for that reason.
Love your simple and direct how to's man. Ive been wrenching for years and youre by far the best instructional ive found! Keep up the gopd work and thanks again
That is just brilliant. I did leak off test on my diesel injectors and it looked good. Tried this method (had to figure it out myself...) and one wasn't clicking!!
This is awesome. I told my husband that I heard this sound prior to him listening, he didn't believe me. You proved me right!!! boooyaaa! Thanks man!
You sound like a very pragmatic woman. I wish you were with me now to help check my fuel injectors. Well done, and I like it 👍

Crisfix, what would a clogged injector sound like?
Patrick Austin probably won't hear it
Yea that’s my question that’s what I want to test for my mustangs been missifiring Kathy after letting it it run on empty tank I think the crap got in a few injectors. How would we test for that because hey we all know everyone’s will works it’s just telling a diff from a clog to a bad one is the question
You literally just put my anxiety to a halt.
Glad I could help!
ChrisFix: “...using a screwdriver.”
Me: Heck yeah a tool I have already!
@@AJNoon accurate lol
Hearing it made my day, no BS thank you for actually doing good work and teaching in a simple yet exceptional way!!! Skal
I have a 02 gmc sonoma 2.2 motor & about 2 weeks ago,i noticed i wasnt getting as much mpg, so i didn't think alot aboit it,then i was checking my oil lastnite & it's has gas in it & has a milkey film around the top of the oil dipstick. I cant find any video's on here about the 2.2 motor, concerning the fuel pressure regulater or injectors. I was gettin about 350 or more miles on a full tank of gas,& now im getting probaly around 300 miles per tank. Any help would be appreciated! T.i.a
I've done this and the problem I typically see is the sound from other injectors travel down the rail and you can't tell if the injector is bad or not. I think a better way in addition to an Ohms test is switch the injector from one port to another than run a code test for that cylinder and see if you get a misfire for that cylinder.
Make a video and show us
That would be cool man
P[😊😊
You forgot to say that a bad injector can cause the car accelerate like gay
____________ 0 'm
😅😅😅
I would prefer a gay car running well than a straight one that thinks like you.
ive used this method too, listening to engine sounds especially on the timing chain part and bearings about to get worn out! its helps a lot of money and time before removing anything or buying some parts that might be the issue but turns out its not.Great video Chris!
As usual - GREAT video CF! I used my the phone - placed directly to the Screw driver and recorded three different injectors and compared them on playback. The phone seems to drown out the other sounds when you put the screwdriver (or other metal rod) on the injectors. :-)
This was very helpful for my 2010 Cobalt ss. Thank you so much. God Bless
Hi Chris what about a fuel injectors replacement on Suzuki Grand Vitara v6 video please if any. Thanks
Just because its clicking doesn't mean if spraying
That can happen, this is just one test to do though
Hi Chris I have a 07 Mini Cooper N12 engine have a p316 check engine light on I check the hall systems for leak can found anything the car shuts off how can I solved this problem thank you very much
Changed my ignition coil since I was getting P0303 and done. No more car hesitation nor error found, thanks!
I wish i can do this with my 350z but the Fuel Injectors are under the Plenum lmao.
Pretty sure you can still reach them. I’m able to see and touch my fuel injectors under the plenum in my G37
You need U shape screwdriver 😂
I cant fucking do this easly because my injectors are under the fucking head
Can you show how to replace fuel injectors?
Just pop me out and replace them with new ones; at least in this example,, diesel is differentffrom direct injection
So what could cause misfires only when above 2krpm. No misfiring when below 40 mph
I have to say, I really appreciate your videos. You break things down in a very easy to follow manner!
+Molly Hebert Thanks Molly! I am glad the videos are easy to follow and helpful!
Quick question, my car is 19 yrs. old with 215K miles. My injectors have never been changed. Do you recommend changing them? I don't know if they are 100% efficient anymore
Your best bet would be to get them changed so your engine and fuel can operate efficiently and perfectly, like brand new. You don't have to change them often unless problems occur, but with that mileage and them never being changed, you've been due for some new injector babies. You'll notice a huge difference especially in your gas mileage I'm sure
Thank you for the clear and simple way of explaining without leaving out any details . I enjoy all your videos and often learn as I am new to this 😎 muchas gracias señor Chris .
Im getting misfire on cyclinder 3 I already changed coil and plug so has to be a injector right?
What ended up being the issue ?
And solution
I sold the fucking truck lmfao I ended up getting another coil that seemed to help
Reminds me of a cheaper version of that stethescope rod tool. Pretty cool stuff.

I did this with a short screw driver wished I used a long one now 🥴
Hey Chris I've been watching your video since a while. They are very informative and helpful. One request, can you please upload more videos on engines?
Chris
If the injector is clogged it will still be clicking ?
this is what iam looking for.. thanks for sharing,, keep going man! ✌️
with a 2005 kia sedona, the injectors are under the manifold cover. Was told by mechanic, there is no way to do this test on kia sedona without removing manifold cover and once you do that, the engine cannot run because of all the disconnecting. Is this true?
You don't want to run an engine with the manifold cover off. There's a lot of sensors between the air intake and and manifold cover that the car needs to run correctly, plus a big risk of debris being sucked into the engine. The car would probably stall out almost immediately if you tried it.
you should check out scotty Kilmer channel he works on cars too
Geoff k ChrisFix way better
Scotty Kilmer is more focused on making quick vids
he thinks fuel economy 10mpg. in his georgeos mk3 Lincoln is great.
I guess that they're rivals
sk introductory is unnecessary & most are summarized.
I have put new coil packs & plugs in my car and it ran but not the best so I put new injectors in and now it won't start what do I do
Does it still crank?
thnk u just checked them pretty amazing.....
dozumbabfree Awesome! Glad you learned something new!
With that screw driver test you also need to listen for the sound. Say you got 4 injectors and you are having a poor acceleration, or intermittent surging off and on, like a chugging type acceleration, if you hear 3 injectors sounding strong and clicking good, then when you get to the bad one it will sound very weak yet hear a weak clicking sound, and sometimes a rapid chatter takes place causing the engine to struggle and shake, that tells you the injector is going bad. I tested mine, 13.0, 13.0, 12.8, 12.7. Numbers are 1 to 4. The fourth one was 12.7 which is within resistance specs, being 0.5 but the sound was the dead give away being so weak, it cannot handle sudden load acceleration. Once you get to highway speeds, you will feel the surging effect take place. How old is the car itself is the first thing to know.
So that sound must all be the same and sound good and strong. You can have a injector all within resistance specs of 0.5 as you said and I disagree, but it must match the sound with the other three. I can also hear that number 3 is sounding strong, and the resistance is below 13.0 when compared to the other two good injectors, It tells me that number 3 is getting ready to fail likewise. They should all be within 0.1 or the same. Anything more than 0.2 difference, that 0.2 is getting ready to say bye bye, while you already know that 0.3 the injector sounds weak and is causing that surging, chugging rough engine effect.
Sometimes you might catch it doing the machine gun like sound, like a rapid chatter being totally abnormal on a intermittent basis
If they are all good, then check the compression on all cylinders, take a look at the cap and rotor and that COIL look for signs of corrosion, and if there is a hole in the exhaust pipe loss of back pressure can screw it up, and last but not the least a Clogged fuel filter, or a fuel pump in the tank is getting weak!!!! One has to check everything besides just injectors. As to the ECM, sometimes that is the cause but its rare. MOST IMPORTANTLY, PULL OUT THE PLUG WIRE AND SEE IF THE ENGINE CHANGES RPM OR SHAKES MORE. WHEN YOU GET TO A BAD SPARK PLUG, THERE WILL BE NO CHANGES TO THE ENGINE RPM OR ITS SHAKING EFFECT. Do it one at a time Ok.. The one that does not change the RPM or changes the engine shake effect, REPLACE THAT PLUG. Cheaper to do a plug change. If that does not help suspect the spark plug wire itself.
For me it turns out yes I did have a weak fuel injector, so I did the swap on the plugs to a different cylinder, retested to hear the injector, it was the same sound being weak, and then pulled out the swap plug and bingo it turns out to be the spark plug. I changed that and presto the problem was solved.
Plugs do go bad INTERNALLY not showing a break on the outside or severe carbon build up. So puzzling indeed I then did another test on that bad plug and discovered sometimes the readings were good, sometimes the readings were bad on the ohms scale. Without an some means to see inside the plug itself,> besides destroying the plug, I have no idea what broke or went bad inside that plug internally. So if this does not solve your problem then read on next paragraphs.
Before all this, did you recently fueled up the car. You could have gotten bad gasoline, and if not then 3 tests can be done quickly by yourself and maybe the fourth one before going to a mechanic. Take a good look at the plugs as described above paragraphs, then how old is the spark plug wires when were they ever changed, when was it the last time you changed your cap and rotor, have you ever had to replace your coil if so when, then do the compression test, must show first compression 40 psi or higher and it should climb rapidly before the 10th stroke. Then do the injectors both by screw driver first, listen to the sound of it, then if all good check the resistance, when was the last time you changed the fuel filter, you can change it yourself. Is your exhaust sound loud or not, If not > Beyond this point if the problem still continues, then you go to the mechanic to test that fuel pump, and to check to see if the ECM is functioning properly and they need to check the other items below next paragraph.
Four other possibles are a bad MAP, and or a bad idle solenoid or idle air sensor. Usually these will set off the codes to the ECM or a injector wire to ECM is grounded somewhere in the harness line. If no codes are seen or light from the ECM, and no wires damaged, you missed something. Go back and restart your trouble shoot list as I said here.
Good luck
Why not just unplug them one by one, if it bogs then it's working if not then it's bad
You could do that too but the clips on fuel injectors can be brittle and you can easily break them!
Also some injectors are a bitch to get out on certain cars
#Gman Upper Intake Manifold Removal is required when servicing on the 2000 Caravan w/ 3.0 Engine. It's not horrible, it takes time though.
Well, it's definitely a good method if you've rewired your injectors and you'd like to see if it's getting an electrical signal still

Awesome 🤘🏻
Wow I think this is the only video where we see the back of Chris’s head
thank you...
Can you please recommend a OBD2 scan tool. I do not have a smart phone. Is Zurich zr13 from Harbor Freight any good? or Foxwell NT630 any good?
My question is this i want marrege with you what about this.
Then you are gay! Gandu pudu!
So my #3 is a random failure. After warming up and turning off and restarting is when i get the code misfire and open circuit. Why is it random? Getting stuck open? Im replacing all 6 tomorrow after a 23 year run with a 4 hole on my Jeep 4.0 IL6.
Wow !
This dude did a great job with this video for dummy mechanics like me !!!!
Thanks!
One problem... I want to try that but I am Deaf as I cannot hear these clicking sound... advice?
Yo, I just did this on my VW jetta 2015. Worked great. Thank you. Had EPC / engine light (sometimes flashing) power loss, bad fuel economy, even smelled like gas sometimes, rough idle, shaking engine etc . OBD said p0304. Recently changed spark plugs, changed coil pack a year or two ago, new battery. Tried fuel injection cleaner, guy at Oreilly said it it should clear up after driving around a bit. Seemed fishy, looked up online and they ranged anywhere from 100-1000 miles or a few tanks of gas before the injector cleans itself (it didnt). Anyway, I swapped plug 1 and 4, still showed misfire. Pretty sure it was fuel injector and this test showed no clicking on 4. Now, I have to see if I can fix it myself. :) Thanks, again.
How would i do this test on the honda 3.0 v6 the injectors are under the intake manifold?
Can you get to the from the side or are they completely covered?
@@chrisfix thanks for the reply they are completely covered so I assume this test can't be done in my situation?
So I had a flashing check engine code on our car. Scanner said cyl 6 misfire and cyl 6 fuel injector. Car started running good, I did the screwdriver check and could hear the pulses. Then car started running bad so I listened for the pulses thought I could hear them. So checked the Ohm on cyl 6 against 4 and 5. Cyl. 4 and 5 were the same, cyl 6 didnt even read. So was I hearing residual pulses from another injector?
Might have been, how close are the injectors from one another?
@@chrisfix I'm thinking the same thing. However this is my first go at it. Doing spark plugs while I'm at it since the intake plenum has to come off to get to the horseshoe fuel rail.
@@chrisfix not positive how close, maybe 8"?? Would you recommend spraying a little wd40 or some other penatrent on the injector to make it easier to pull the injector to not damage the oring?
Mine wasn't clicking but I got mine working again with injector cleaner and a battery but 1 year later it's dead again. Can you repair injectors other than spray cleaning or sometimes they die forever??
So my 350z is misfiring on cylinder 4. Checked all 6 injectors but 4 sounds weak. It's clicking steadily but it's half as load as the other 5. Switched injectors 2&4 to see if it would make cylinder 2 misfire. Nothing changed....still p0304..could it be the wire harness? The $180 question
Very Good Video! Do you have a video on how to replace the fuel injector? I have a 99 Ford Ranger 3.0L
What is the drop rate for injectors on a 5.3 Chevy motor out of my 14’ Silverado?
I'd look elsewhere - it's probably somewhere on some forum somewhere...
What would be wrong if starts up and is loud till it cools down but if I let it sit there after awhile I get what seems to feel like a misfire and everytime it happens under the hood you can here a click, sometimes it's a single click and other times u hear click... Click,click,,,click, it seems it's a bit over the place, along with it when I drive at say holding a constant speed it sputters a bit
Any codes showing up when that happens?
No, and only thing that happened when they hooked up device and drove it was 6,248 on 4 of 8 cylinders for # of misfires and doesn't change
Think it's pcm , and found out replacing wires got rid of the click that turned out to be a spark plug sparking after getting under it in the dark
Hey thanks man! Excellent video! I had hesitation AND a hard start (two cranks) in my 1999 Jeep Cherokee. The hard start was due to a failing fuel pump (bad check valve and fuel pressure regulator). The hesitation and bad idle were from a failed injector. 'Preciate it man.
Awesome! Glad the video helped and nice job diagnosing the problem!
Do injectors on renault captur have 5v going to them or 12v (year 2017)

Hey Chris!
A friend of mine has a 1994 auto Opel Astra 1.6 petrol (standart 90's GM engine) but with an aftermarket LPG system. The problem with it is that, when in idle, it stalls and since its an auto, it can't pull away smoothly without a clutch :'(. I really want to help him and fix it, since he can't afford another car nor to repair it. I'm wondering what could be the cause of the problem (faulty fuel injector/s?). I would really love to hear your opinion on this!
Best wishes!
Yes bro I only gets trouble to start on morning ..but the car crank grate but struggle to pick up can a distributor cause that problem?
I have an EPC on my dash what could that be it's a VW tiguan and is says my cylinder 1 is faulty
Only if my injectors werent behind my manifold and I could actually reach them while the engine was running
My car runs well no problems starting or idling. The issue is my ‘18 Honda accord sport 2.0t had a mileage of over 330 miles (brand new). Fast forward to more than 6 years later.. Nowadays I only get a max 210 sometimes 198 miles. Does that mean it’s possible I have bad fuel injectors? I know there’s a recall for the 2018-2022 Honda accords but the dealers say no parts yet.. they don’t even know if that is the reason I have low fuel economy.
Man, by the time I finish watching all your videos I should be a certified mechanic for myself
Hi Chris you are legend I fix a lot of things when I saw your videos can you make a video how to clean injector thanks bro
I replaced one fuel injector that wasnt working and when I tested the others the new one ticked good and 2 of the old ones sounded similar but the last one sounded like it was ticking a little slowe
After watching your other video, I found my defective injector with a multimeter. The bad one read 193 ohms whereas the other two that were accessible read 14 ohms. Plan to replace all 6 because of the labor involved. Don't wanna do this twice. DTC was P0304.
I learn a new idea on this, thanks bro.
Thanks a lot!
Bro this just helped me diagnose my bad fuel injector. Thank you brotha. Really appreciate it.
I'm glad the video was able to help you diagnose your fuel injector!
Thanks for the tip! I just replaced my fuel pump but think my injectors need attention and this is the perfect non invasive test for my theory! Fyi your voice is hot😉🙃🤫…..ugh I’m a creep now
Great videos and help me a lot on your channel, but just wondering if the diesel engine can use the same method doing this? And is the misfire will also consistent happens or it will only happen sometimes?
Love your videos. You’re my go to guy for diy car repairs. I have a 2003 Toyota Camry. Could my fuel injectors be the problem when my car cranks but won’t start? I have a lot of power, so Probably not a battery issue. New battery. I’ve checked my fuses, relays and changed my fuel pump. Nothing has worked. I’m lost.
Crank sensor
Is it possible to hear my injectors just standing next to my idling engine? I don’t think it’s a rocker arm/lifter it’s quiet but sounds like what you showed in this video.
If yes would a “loud” injector be healthy or unhealthy?
Would a bad injector also cause it to blow the fuel injector fuse? I have a 2015 Ford escape and it keeps blowing the fuel injector fuse and just before it happens there’s a lot of hesitation and then the motor shuts off. Once I replace the fuse then I can drive it for a very short distance less than a quarter mile, and then it blows again.I have sent stop driving it until I determine what the issue is. At this point I can’t even drive it to Garage to have it inspected. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Read about what JESUS did this is mine blowing. Can you believe this, did you ever hear of this about HIM

Mas sensor. Can undo battery put back on truck runs great for fifty miles engine light comes on idles up and down, gets 5 mpg and reads lean bank one code. There's nothing else to replace that I know of. Help. Short term fuel reads 32.5 long term 0.0.
Can you update and show what a bad or failing injector sounds like. Great video by the way.
Can bad injectors cause white smoke out exhaust? Trying to diagnose is the white smoke head gasket or bas injectors. The white smoke only happened after injector orings were replaced & intake gaskets. Also I noticed when i hit the gas at low rpm (RED LIGHTS) the car sputters & sometimes even stalls completely. Trying to figure out head gasket or injectors, no coolant in oil & front 3 spark plugs smell like straight gas
Will this apply to Nissan altimas as well
Yes
Hello, please help me if anyone had this issue. I have Nissan Juke 2015. A problem started a few weeks ago. When i start the car it's ok but after 30-40 minutes of driving when car reaches some good temperature, and while I'm standing in heavy traffic or standing on idle sometimes its engine changes sound to something like it lost some power, starts shaking on idle, and whole car is also shaking. I went to mechanic and we changed spark plugs, it did not help, then we changed ignition coils, it did not help as well. Now mechanic says that could be a computer problem sometimes it works sometimes it does not and car starts shaking while standing in traffic or on idle. When ever i give a bit push on a pedal or turn on the AC it fixes, but when i release pedal and let it be on idle, it starts shaking again (sometimes it even goes away by itself). I also plugged to a diagnostic and it does not show any code until it starts shaking, when shaking it shows this "code P0300 multi cylinder misfire". What is your opinion about this situation and symptoms i told you? Can this be an injector or some cable problem or some sensor? Thank you
DAM I wish I would have seen this video before I removed my injectors lol. I have a p0302 code andniv already installed spark plugs, tested the coil packs and now I'm just replacing the injector.
Hey Chris I have an 05 expedition Eddie Bauer and it has the cam phasers............. can I swap it out for an engine without the phasers like the old 98 expedition 5.4?
What if I hear that same exact nose inside my 2011 Kia optima ex 2.4? It has all the symptoms of a bad fuel injector/spark plugs. I’m not super mechanically inclined but since economy has risen up and up I had no choice but to do it myself. I guess you can say I’m missing the experience and am learning now first hand how to work on my cars. Because as you know all the symptoms are the same except for one or two things for system you try a fix. So it starts at high rpms has rough idle makes a clicking noise when accelerating which I thought might be a exhaust issue because of where the sound was coming from when I drive and I have poor gas mileage. It shakes when it’s on idle I have recently smelled gas after driving fast and then at idle, but the exact noise that you let us hear right now I can hear when I’m at a stoplight or in park.
Recently bought a 2010 Ford Escape 4cyl. The car runs fine but when I come to stop, say, at a red light - the idle becomes rough. It goes away when I put it in park or neutral though. I changed the spark plugs recently hoping that was the problem but didn't help.
Not what I expected when I searched up gfuel
great video! I got an 05 4.0 ranger and am about to go check the injectors cause it got a p2195 but found no response with starting fluid spray around test, hope i find something
Thanks for this. I recently got a P0301 code. After new spark plugs and new coils I still have the error code. I'm going to try this in the morning.
I had a code that told me my 3rd cylinder on my 1998 F150. Was the problem I had it looked at from O’Reillys using their free test Engine light tester I found out the corporate problem was my fuel filter replaced it with WIXS
So... I have a 2008 dodge ram 1500 3.7L. I have changed all 6 spark plugs. The ignition coil is good. The fuel pump has been changed out. I am getting a miss fire. The codes are P0202, and P0302. The missfire on this cylinder is happening due to the fuel injector. The kicker is the fuel injector has been replaced 3 times in total now. Twice with one brand of injector and the last, and most recent injector, is OEM. The only time it miss fires is when the engine has ran for a moment, I stop the engine and it starts to miss fire immediately. The miss fire doesnt happen from cold crank.
2004 galant 2.4l low idle almost stalls no cel, just replace ect sensor, thermostat, spark plugs, valve cover gasket, and spark plug tube seals due to oil on coils 161k miles, and i just got a quote for $2,800 for a hub/bear, shock all around, outer tie rods, idler pulley, and i need brake pads and rotors all around, (braking on the highway had the steering wheel shaking). i got the car for 1k...
oh and mold
