    The injectors from factory are acting up. Found out the Toyota factory ones are known to fail, short out, and Toyota will clean them at over 500.00 dollars. But they do not tell you the factory ones go bad. Even after that. Any recall out?? On the other web site companies make better ones?

    well I do know the reconditioned injectors have shown to sometimes leak so I wouldn't buy and reconditioned ones but they are third party companies doing the "reconditioning" so its not Toyota.

    this enormous thread here turned out to be leaking reconditioned injectors installed after an engine rebuild and she went through a nightmare before it was finally discovered by dealership mechanics https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...d-cranking-after-engine-swap-3-4l-5vz.354399/
