Drivers side, behind the kick panel. If your talking about the self test, its the black connector

Thanks!

OK, looks like I have a bad injector (forward dr. side cylinder).
Any idea on labor cost? The tech is talking about removing that air-con pipe to get to it? Thanks!

Re: Quick help - Test port location?

you can do this yourself.it's very easy.unplug connector, remove cap screws twist and pull injector out .might be a little hard at first but it will turn then pop the new one in.viola it's done. i just took all of mine out and cleaned them up took about 1 hour .make sure the little isolator ring from the old injector isn't stuck to the underside of the cap before you replace it.hope this helps.

Significant Technical Input
Re: Quick help - Test port location?

Use new o-rings and lube them and the fuel rail with vaseline before installing the injector. If you don't the orings usually tear and leak. The screws that hold the caps on are usually pretty hard to break loose. To break them loose without buggering them use an impact driver (that's a screw driver operated by a hammer--hitting it with a hammer applies both the downward and twisting forces at the same time--they work like a miracle--can be gotten for cheap from harbor freight as well as the usual places like snap on, mac, and napa.
