Timing and Metering Valves

Or fuel leaking by internally in the injector allowing the timing to be incorrect? I know how to test for compression leaking back with the hose in the cup looking for air, I'm not sure how to test an injector for timing to see if the liquid cylinder is holding tight.

A leaky injector will back-feed a tiny bit of the cylinder pressures, backwards into the fuel system, throwing off everything intermittently. It can become bad enough to eventually cause solenoid damage too.

The test is simple. I have videos on how to check for leaky injectors + how to identify which one it is ...
