Issue with number 7 injector

Hello All,


I want to know what the best thing to do here is.


I have a P1277 Code and I replaced the Valve cover gasket and I am still getting the code. I just measured the resistance to the number 7 at the connection on the driver side and I get 3.2 so I am now thinking I have a bad injector. I read somewhere I should take off the solenoid and make sure the screw is not loose for the flapper. That could cause a P1277. or at this point should I just replace the injector. I have done everything else I can think of.


Chris

The sell shims for the armature look at eBay can save you $$ if you don't want to swing for a new injector

My question is, is it worth going through the trouble of pulling the solenoid? and checking the screw to the armature, or that this point is it better to just get an injector?
