I am just now getting to go get my injectors looked at, but first has anyone heard anything about Hot Shot Secret? If so what have you heard? Good, or bad?

Please explain to me how a PSD injector can have a "stuck nozzle"...

valve inside the nozzle isnt closing....
if this is the case you should be able to take the injector and plug three of the four holes of the fuel inlet's. put compressed air to one of the holes and watch fuel seep out of the nozzle.

not the most high tech way to do it or the right way but it works.
