calebz Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I'm confused. There is no cold start injector on an EA82T. If your check engine light came on, that means you have an error code stored in the system. Pull the codes(refer to the USRM) and report back.

subyrally Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 sounds like you unpluged the resistor for the injectors. was it a metal colored rectangular box on the front of the passenger strut? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
