5th Gen Camaro Fuel Injector Balance Test Using Autel MS906 

Sea Foam is all I can say i use it in everything and can tell you 100% it helps.

excellent job thanks nice scan tool

Thanks for helping us with ideas

I believe some fuel system cleaners work, PEA has been shown to work in labs with motor tear downs. It's generally considered effective, but it's doesn't prevent build up long term, though I do fully agree with you on top tier fuel. The problem is with used vehicles, you don't really know, and while no cleaner will fix an already clogged injector the cleaners can help remove pre-existing build up before it becomes a larger issue. Everyone always has their antidotal experience, I do as well, bought a 2009 Buick, gas gauge was off (horribly, apparently the fuel sending unit was prone to build up which throw off it's accuracy), and it took a long time to start (some times 5-7 attempts). I looked up online and found this was a semi common occurrence with these vehicles, Buick/GM released a TSB in regards to this issue stating to run Chevron Techron fuel system cleaner. Active ingredient was PEA, so I ran several tanks of it back to back, maybe 3-4 wasn't a lot of $ to add it to each, if helped significantly with gas gauge, and also with starting. I had the car for close to a decade, just recently sold it, and in that time neither issue ever returned, so while I do believe a lot of the additive market is a scam, there are a handful of products which have proven to do as they claim in lab, and real world tests/tear downs.

I have a 16 Camaro SS, I keep getting a bad misfire on cyl 3 at WOT and some slight misfire on the other cyls on that side. I replaced the injectors the fuel rail and the wiring and it was fine for awhile but it eventually came back. I did the drop test with this scan tool and the driver's side is around 250 kpa and the passenger is 350, any Idea on what I should do next? I may figure it out but not sure lol Thank you

Hi. With Autel Maxisys Ms906 reprograms new injectors ? Thanks

Normally on a fuel injector balance test, it is performed with key on, engine off and the fuel injectors are each activated separately key on engine off for a predetermined time, and after each one tested ,the key must be cycled off then back on to cycled the fuel pump on for a second to build the rail pressure back before proceeding to the next. After all the injectors have been tested for flow measuring the pressure drops to compare, then you start the engine to clear out all the gas and run a little while before you can repeat the testing again. If the engine is running and you disable a selected fuel injector , if it runs rougher , that just tells you that the fuel injector for that cylinder must have been contributing and working..

Good lesson for me, I really need this kind of details please, could you help me, please

Thank you . For your time... great video.

Hi, I have an autel ms906 and I don't know how to get to the hot functions to do the injector test. Could you please let me know how you get there? Thanks

Hey man, i would appreciate if you can answer my question. So i have a cylinder 5 misfire, i changed the spark and coil and it’s still misfiring on cylinder 5. I did the same test that you did for you fuel injector and it says it’s fine but it’s still misfiring. What could be the problem?

f I buy autel maxsys906 from Amzon can i use in any country or should I buy it from local dealer to avoid the pan because different IP address?

Do you have any videos where you do this on a none GDI engine i cant find one?

hi there sir so your injectors are all fine what was the fault sir on the rough running

What if there is too much pressure drop on one of the injectors?

Do you have to pay every year to used these OBD ? If you dont pay every year or monthly Does it still works ? Does it Scan for Fuel Pressure Does it Scan for Compression testing Like Sparks ? So if you dont update for example does that still works ?

Is Sams Club fuel a top tier? Don’t see it on the at list…

Thanks for sharing, I’m trying to buy a scan tool what do you prefer autel or foxwell??

E

Ms906bt or? Im trying to figure my ms906bt out when it comes to injectors i get it where it pulls up but no readings? Os it under service or diagnostic?
