Wait, you let it steep for 14 hours instead of 12 and it ruined the whole batch? That extra two hours shouldn't have made that big of a difference unless your grind was way too fine or your ratio was off. I've accidentally left mine for 16 hours before and it was still drinkable, just a bit strong. What grind size did you use?

Man, I learned this the hard way on my 7.3. Bought a set of reman injectors off eBay and threw them in without checking pop pressure. Ended up with a dead miss at idle and had to pull them all back out to send to a shop. @carter.laura is right, you need to at least check them with a pop tester before install. On these HEUI injectors, if one is off by more than 50 psi from the others, you'll get a lope that won't tune out. Takes a half hour to check all eight if you have a tester.

Man, exactly. I had the same problem with my old system, turned out a spider web was setting off the motion sensor every time the wind blew. Took the tech maybe 20 minutes to swap it out and I haven't had a false alarm since. People don't realize how much cheaper it is to just call your alarm company for a tune-up instead of fighting those fines.
