Talk about uh-oh (and shes my only ride)

[Classy-or-nasty]

(2006 with G56, mostly stock) As some of you know, i was lookkng at injector upgrades (went with the BBI stage 1s)
Process went well until tightening wire nuts on studs. 1 stud broke (will upload pic after this main post) thought i found a way to rig it, failed, got a more solid connection but she still runs like kaka. I drop 0 psi at rail with any throttle,constant haising of unburnt fuel from exhaust, even at idle, runs like **** and dies frequent. Im in a serious pinch because shes my only ride, and i need any help i can so i can figure this out. You guys have never let me down yet. Thank you kn advanced to anyone who helps!!!

Shew thats a rough situation. I would say anything you do to fix the stud will be just a bandaid. Maybe take the nut off the eyelet. Since it looks to have a pretty hefty spacer below it. And then try a different nut? It looks like you've got a little stud there to work with.

Well thats exactly what my bandaid was... cleaned all the contact surfaces very well too...

Dang and no good?. Youd think even tho the stud is broken as long as it had good contact it would be fine. Ive never put injectors in a diesel but isnt it pretty normal for them to run like trash for a bit after replacing them? How long did you let it run?

Update: came home, tried to run her longer, and got nothin, still dumping unburnt fuel. Still really low fuel. No fittings leaking, all connections tight on fuel system.

I bet it's the crossover tube, that's giving you fits about the fuel pressure, I had a similar experience in mine. I pulled and replaced it, problem solved. For the injector, did you bump it and break the stud or over tighten? If you over tightened, it may have broken the contact in the solenoid.

Reckon it was an over tighten. I know i didnt bump the stud, but then again, i was running the nut down by hand when it occured.... i thought of this, but wouldnt the stud be lose if it broke contact?
