    While you had the fuel injectors out , you should have checked for spray pattern of them all and compare . You will need to do this to confirm. .

    Next on the list is confirming are all the coils sparking the plugs .

    Doing these two tests will confirm and then you can make a decision to what path you will take next .
    Either investigate the coil wiring or the injectors harness .

    Also I forgot , if you haven’t had the valve cover off yet , if the other tests are all ok , then you’ll need to check the valve train is functioning correctly .

    all injectors spray pattern same moved working to cylinders to non and no change.
    all coils are firing and plugs sparking. before I pull the valve cover how do I test the injector harness?
