    96 Cavalier-fuel injector or pressure gauge?
    We have been try to correct a raw gas problem on a 1996 Chevy Cavalier. Replace two cracked injectors. Thought it worked, then found another leaking injector. Could the Fuel Pressure Gauge be causing a problem?

    How are you determining that the injectors are cracked unless you have the entire fuel injector rail out of the vehicle?

    Yes, the injectors have been removed from the rail and three are cracked. I have replaced two and they no longer leak. The leaks were obvious prior to replacement. After checking the Regulator Pressure with a tester, it seems to be within the proper limits.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    These injectors fit into the intake manifold on this particular car, 1996 2.2 Cavalier.
    Bottom feed injectors.

    When you say, "Raw gas problem," are you seeing or smelling a leak? Or is it leaking fuel into the engine?

    Some of these vehicles are possibly subject to recall for similar concerns. Contact your local Chevy dealer with your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). They can verify if your vehicle is listed and if the recall is still current and valid.
