Q: Stalls immediately after starts, and also only cranks over in neutral.
scanner only says that 2 injectors are weak.i've dropped and flushed fuel tank and blew out fuel lines and replaced fuel filter. Thought may have algea in tank but it was clean as a whistle,so that did not fix problem .now I'm stumped but Im thinking it probably has something to do with it having to be in neutral to crank over?Any ideas?? Thanks(BTW this is a handicap shuttle bus )
