the car did well the whole day exept a bit of missfiring problem at high rev..
then after a few cutoff on neutral it started to run rich and sputter
it revs like a subaru

Looks like it run on 3 cyl.

Wideband = 10.. extremly rich

compression is 135-135-135-130

spark plugs are fine coil packs were changed no difference

the plugs were all blaCK even

vaccum is reading a bit low on idle (14 instead of 18)

fuel pump sound a bit different

tuned with aem ems serie 2

with map sensor

If spark is good and plugs gapped correctly then fuel injectors stuck open or torn O-rings in the fuel rail

way to check for a dead injector is to have the motor running, and unplug each injector one by one, the one that does no effect on the motor meaning thats the dead injector.

Another way to check if you have a dead injector is to get a long screw driver and put the tip of the screwdriver on the betal base of the injector and put you your on the handle end and you can here it working/ticking...if no sound. Than you have a dead injector

leave the injectors in the rail, un bolt the rail.

Turn ignition in ON but dont crank

Check if o rings leak

Then unplug your coils and have a friend crank it over and check if all 4 are spraying

so btw the issue was comming from fuel obviously so y removed the fuel rail to see if leaking when the ignition was turn on... no

then i cranked it to see if they all spray and one of them is weak. spray aint powerful compared to others
