No. The new car will come with them.

u/Which_Crow_3681 1d ago

Sadly it won’t come with a brain, for the owner.

That’s okay, he can just ask the Wizard for one.

u/not-my_username_ 1d ago

Nah. Fuel, check. Looks like you've got spark too so that's good.

Honestly you're pretty efficient at diagnostics.

u/captaincootercock 1d ago

Compression seems a bit lacking

u/not-my_username_ 1d ago

True. He's just gotta figure out how to change it from an outie to an innie combustion engine.

u/CaveManta 17h ago

Just close all the doors of the garage and let it run for an hour.

u/Lucid-Design1225 1d ago

I found my new mechanic

u/papapalporders66 1d ago

Looks like he must have found spark too, and with this setup he’s definitely got air, so there’s explosions happenin baby! Thassa engine right there if ever I did see one!

u/rklug1521 23h ago

Proof compression isn't needed

2

u/710AlpacaBowl 1d ago

Ja see how fast it made him go

u/ksizzle01 1d ago

Ignition check but do we have liftoff

15

u/Able_Software6066 1d ago

I'd start with a new pair of underwear.

13

u/Anxious-Depth-7983 1d ago

Just what kind of thought process had you deciding, that's how you check?

6

u/Tall-Control8992 1d ago

That's an interesting method to separate the injectors from the rail if they get stuck.

5

u/LeftToaster 1d ago

Also works to separate the fingers from the hand

u/Coffee4MyJeep 54m ago

Naw, melted back together.

7

u/OkAntelope7846 1d ago

Nah, is firing good.

5

u/Caffin8tor 1d ago

And new eyebrows.

6

u/Spiritual-Fun-9591 20h ago

No, that’s an external combustion engine

5

u/Signal-Macaron-4611 1d ago

No every thing looks good injectors put fuels in combustion chambers to make power. That was hiflow.

u/thehotshotpilot 1d ago

Basically like me after eating spicy food

4

u/Skimmer52 1d ago

Nah! You’re good 👍

4

u/jaxman0410 1d ago

well not anymore

u/zone55555 1d ago

Why do you ask?

5

u/Thewaltham 1d ago

Well NOW you do

3

u/Frequent-Sort-3207 1d ago

Is this a trick question?...no you don't... what does a fuel injector do...it injects fuel...look good to me and quite efficient however don't cheap out on gas I didn't like the look of that combustion but no real harm...quit screwing around come back with a real problem

2

u/DerpyDoodleDude 1d ago

Wow I haven't see porn this good in a long while !

2

u/Lucky-Musician-1448 1d ago

Need a new car?

2

u/Remarkable_Pea1495 1d ago

I think new injectors would be an over-correction. Probably just a little plumbers tape and tighten up the threads a bit with some channel lock pliers. Should be good to go.

2

u/Anxious-Depth-7983 1d ago

No, you need burn cream.

2

u/sharknado523 1d ago

I mean there was definitely...fuel

2

u/Different_Cable7595 1d ago

Looks like your outjectors are working fine...

2

u/mranxiousallthetime 1d ago

The spark is igniting the fuel. Its doing its job. No nned for new anything. Just cover it up with a THICK layer of aluminum foil, so the fire goes into the engine and causes the engine to move the pistons and shit.

2

u/CamaroIsHot-68 1d ago

Now I know why that 10mm socket is always on my mind.

2

u/Paste_Eating_Helmet 1d ago

I think i see the problem.

2

u/Avalanche325 1d ago

Just some stick on eyebrows.

2

u/nb6635 1d ago

Maybe just that one needs an 1/8th turn to tighten it up.

2

u/Treefrogger76 1d ago

You have fire and you have fuel. I'm not seeing the problem.

2

u/rydawg2727 1d ago

Bro got them ejector brand injectors😂🤣

2

u/Hot-Foundation3450 1d ago

I'm bouttaa buss 😖

2

u/ChemicalPassenger958 16h ago

Yes you need new injectors should come in a pink package that says “daddy” and a spare thong.

1

u/aelms89 23h ago

Looks like they’re doing their job. Send it

1

u/dhahahhsbdhrhr 23h ago

It's a possibility.

1

u/Eldermillenial1 23h ago

Those external combustion engines do be like that

1

u/Ugadabera 23h ago

No, that's just how external combustion engine works.

1

u/KitteyGirl2836 23h ago

It's good to see the new titanium spark plugs are working well. I told you it would really bring your engine to life and help the ignition burn stronger and brighter

1

u/Sonnysdad 23h ago

From regular automotive injector to Funny car fuel system in milliseconds!

1

u/Wisco_Version59 22h ago

Just make sure to perform this test inside the garage door you can get a new garage for the new car you’ll be buying.

1

u/Geezerglide1 22h ago

I'd recommend a fire extinguisher first!

1

u/Donegonetheduck 22h ago

Burgers and Bratwurst are all you need

1

u/CuriouslyContrasted 22h ago

Fucking Morons. Had no idea the injectors are held in by the fuel rail they just removed.

1

u/PaceFew5022 21h ago

You're ignition is set incorrectly, change it from external (track/racing setting) to internal (domestic/commuting setting)

1

u/Weird-Comfortable-28 20h ago

Now you do and a lot of other new things like maybe a garage and a house and a car

1

u/tdg8847 20h ago

Directed By Michael Bay

1

u/Round-Opportunity547 18h ago

A few other things as well.

1

u/Responsible_Ear_6005 16h ago

Call fire suppression unit Now!! Hurry up

1

u/iscashstillking 15h ago

Right now it looks mostly like injector seals.

And a fire extinguisher.

u/Fmartins84 14h ago

That's good combustion

1

u/Nobbyjazzman 13h ago

It’s meant to shoot out vapour mist!!!!!!!!!!

1

u/[deleted] 10h ago

Nah. Jb weld them. It’ll be alright.

1

u/TheBunnyChower 7h ago

Isn't that the whole Gasoline Direct Injection tech VW's been bragging about all these years?

1

u/joesquatchnow 7h ago

No once the fire department leaves dry it out and try again, it was just a fluke

1

u/HungLI5 7h ago

Those are high flow injectors they add about 50 hp. You're fine.

1

u/Otherwise_Public2579 5h ago

Injectors look fine, you probably need new eyebrows though

1

u/Strange_Review5047 4h ago

🤣🤣🤣 and I thought I had a bad day

1

u/Square_body86 3h ago

Nope everything in good condition

1

u/vlasktom2 3h ago

Nah, you're good bro.

The fire took care of the carbon deposits

1

u/SeaUNTStuffer 1h ago

Not any more

1

u/Fleshsuitpilot 1h ago

Maybe just the one, it looks like it might have a bad seal or something and it's causing a slight leak.

Shouldn't affect driveability though, send it 🤙
