He pulled the injector its not visibly broken... But he said he did a ?contribution? test and a compression test and both things pointed to the injector. Although I may have miss understood what he was talking about... some clarification from you guys would help.

The "contribution" test is a Cylinder Contribution Test (CCT). It is done on a running engine to determine if one or more cylinders are weak, or you could say not contributing to its share of the work. The test results tell which cylinder or cylinders are the slackers. It sounds like he only found one bad cylinder. That's good because the CCT didn't point to any other cylinders. This lack of contribution can be caused by several things but is usually a bad injector, low compression, or both from what he told you.

If he dresses nice, I'm thinking he could get ATLEAST $205.00.
