SPN 652 — Injector Cylinder #02
System: Fuel
Circuit or performance fault for the cylinder 2 fuel injector.
Can I keep running it?
HIGH — limit use, diagnose now
Misfire and rough running are likely. Avoid heavy load; a stuck or leaking injector can wash down the cylinder or dilute the oil.
Likely causes
- Injector solenoid circuit open or shorted
- Chafed harness or loose terminal nut under the valve cover
- Worn, sticking or leaking injector
- Connector (feed) tube or seal problem
- ECM injector driver fault
Checks & fixes (easiest first)
- Check the FMI — open/short FMIs point to wiring and the coil first
- Read balance rates and run a cylinder cutout / contribution test
- Measure injector return flow, isolating cylinder 2 per the OEM procedure
- Inspect the harness under the valve cover and check oil level for fuel dilution
Common FMIs with SPN 652
