    Dripping injectors...?

    Got the following problem with my M42.

    The car is on temperature.
    I stop the engine for like five up to ten minutes, get back to the car and start the engine.
    The engine may runs five seconds fine, then it starts to shake heavy like its running on two or three cylinders only, that goes for some seconds, and all will be fine again.

    If I give full throttle while this happens, chanches are high the engine gets back on four cylinders and runs fine again.
    If I do nothing, it may dies sometimes too.

    What do you guys think this could be, my guess is dripping injectors? (I hope you get what I mean).
    It does not happen when I start the engine and it is cold.

    I'm just asking since it might be another problem someone knows of.

    not likely the injectors. post a list of parts that are new on the engine. sounds like ICV issues or vacuum leaks to me.

      I did clean the ICV a while ago, should be fine.
      The pipes under the air intake and all around, I did switch all of those, so they are all new.
      Idle of the engine is fine, for example when I stop at a red light and the engine is warm.
      The problem just appears when the engine is off after it had been on temperature, and then started again after a while.

        Ok, so I found this on M42 Club:



        What do you think, could it be?
        I will check for that.

        That was it.
        My M42 has a cat, and the wire was plugged in, which is wrong.
