I took the cap off the PD and the screw was in the cap!!! I take it this is bad as well, should i try and get it to go back in or replace it?
I tested for spark by puting a screw driver in the plugs and having someone crank the engine and looked to make sure they arked, they all arked and I got shocked once. is this an accurate test?

[QUOTE=RotaryResurrection]either replace the injector lower grommets or use a little bit of sealant on the lower edge of them to prevent a vacuum leak there.
What should I use to seal the injector grommets???
