Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

I couldnt find the bits I needed to make myself a crude rig to see if my injectors spray or not,so
went to a Bosch injector place near work,asked if they could test them, they're off a bike ? I described them then he said
Im sure they're the same as many car injectors,we cant really service them,they're throw aways,we can clean them and replace the filters....
So its narrowed down to ECU or injectors

Injectors were bench tested today, found to be a little 'down' on performance so ultra sound cleaned, now 100%.
The man who can said there is no way the injectors would have caused me the non firing problems.
The guys in the service place were very helpful with advice ect, the bill was a reasonable £36 inc vat
As the injector relays work, the wiring works, that leaves the ECU,
Just bought one,guaranteed working, £97 delivered :smt001

A tip given to me by the injector techs..................
Buy a NIOD light from a motor factors, these fellas plug into the injector wiring and flash when a pulse is sent to the injector.
I'd seen them for sale but had no idea what they did

may have spelled NOID wrong, Im lysdexic

Very handy link that man !
Perhaps put in in the appropriate section,didnt read it all but a wealth of info to be had.
Falcopops was no doubt on it with a handy tip but there is nothing easier than a simple plug in test,good for f**kwits like me :smt005

Just a thought

Check your vacuum hoses around the injectors
