Injectors. Look at it this way, you got 36,000 miles for it to blow up before it ain't covered by warranty. [8D]

You've got a warranty... just take it into the shop and get it taken care of.

Someone else was having problems on here... I think they said their check engine light came on and off or something.

Hopefully these things don't fall apart.

Palease! On a new motor, that's ALL you hear is the injectors! A sweet snapping sound IMO. And, 200SI, injectors operate at 12V just like every other component...save for the 5V sensors. There's no huge static electricity snap you hear. Fuel injectors are soleniods, similar to a realy, or a door lock for example. What you hear is the tiny iron or steel core moving up and down.
