Just installed injectors last week.tried unplugging icp didn't change how it ran so by not changing how it runs you think it might be my issue? Thanks for the input

How about that map sensor.... You can try unpluging it and see if it runs even rougher or smoother... Or a weak HPOP. If worse come to works get a 1500-2000psi pressure guage and pull a plug off the oil gallie and put the pressure guage on and crank it and see what kind of oil pressure you are getting, if you cant get a OBD II to read the pressures for you..

last week but how many miles? if you drive 2 miles a day vs 200 miles a day that will vary how long it takes to work the air out of the hpo system (also how hard you drive harder you drive less miles it takes) but if last week was like 150 miles of easy driving could be airated OR did you use those cheap a@# china orings on your inj's??? I tried that cus i got em free... BIG mistake... had like 5 of em disintegrate 50% in like 2 weeks
