wow really? on cylinder #1, the compression is good, the fuel is good, the spark should be good, the only thing left is either a REALLY stuck valve or a valve clearance that is way outa wack.

make sure to test your TPS, O2, and VAMF sensors as well. if those come back ok then you definitely know it is a valve problem because that would be the last possibility. what is your timing set at?

One more thing and this may not be related at all, I hear what sounds like a vacuum leak near the distributer. It sounds like it is coming from the valve which is screwed into the power steering pump just below the distributer (has two vacuum lines coming out of it). Just a coincidence?

The timing is set at 5 degress btdc.
It idles where it is supposed too.
I can't find a vacuum leak even though it sounds like there is one.

The #1 injector I took out had no ohm reading. I sent all four to 22re performance who sent them out to someone in Texas (my four plus an xtra one), five were returned to me; the bad one was marked "bad" and four others were packaged and ready; "good to go"
I did not test them when I got them back(did not even think I would have to recheck their work), but it seems unlikely that one of the four they sent back to me is bad and I just happen to put it in the #1 injector position, but i guess anything is possible.
I guess the connector could also be bad?

Man you are having the same problem i'm having on my 3.0. I was about to pull off my intake mani. today to get to the injectors but I think i'm going to wait. Are you still going through this problem?
