done the engine swap , and one of the 1.6 injectors is blowing fuel out of itself, from top. are there anyways of clearing it, id get a new one but thats 3 days from germany, darlo suzuki. anyone had this fault before, will the 1.6 engine run on the 1.3 injectors, worst case scenario until i can get a replacement or will it do in the ecu? need to get fixed this weekend or its another week off work, any help ideas would be v much appreciated, cheers in adavnce
I had this same issue trying to fit the injectors. As Keith says, check the rubber o rings. Its tricky to get them all seated in correctly and stop the fuel leak.
Worst case it will be happy enough with the 1.3 injectors (thats whats in my M18 currently and its fine)

The 1.8 ones I tried were putting too much fuel in. You could hear it evaporating in the exhaust after trying to run it and it was running badly (rough). Tried all sorts but ended up going to the 1.3 injectors and all was well. My 1.3 injectors are orange, the 1.8 were yellow and I think the 1.6 were blue, but I dont know if the colours mean anything or not.
Ive been looking into throttle body setups and better exhaust so I will keep them incase they are useful for that (if it ever happens)
