There's a few members that are having similar issues that they can't get to the bottom of. I wonder if a dirty tps will give the occasional miss? Apparently drilling a small hole into the casing and filling it with some sort of electrical cleaner works wonders. Maybe give this a shot?

halafuknluya problem found and fixed after a week of a mechanic didn't wanna look at it I gave it to another he did every check he could then said take it to wreckers to try another computer on it and 15 mins later after he climbed all over engine bay he said you have a broken earth wire somewere so sure enough I found it in harness behind alt ,that earth wire was for injector 4 so it had 24v and no earth so it was stuck open flooding plug ,almost thought it was a burnt vaulve im so friggin happy, THANK YOU BEST WRECK BUNBURY and buy the way the wire was joind cheaply with a little metal join that had corroded over time and broke.
