So an update. I decided the course of action I wanted to take was to replace the single injector and see where that got me. The short answer is nowhere. New injector, van runs great, still ticking. Unplugging #5 still makes the ticking stop, unplugging all others individually does not. Only interesting thing I can note is that when I pulled the old injector back out that I had just cleaned less than 20 miles ago, the tip was already quite covered in carbon. I have no idea if this is normal, but just interested me. I think I’ll probably wind up getting the injector tested to have a spare if needed. I decided to take the route I did because I have a little self quarantine road trip planned for the wife’s bday in a few days, and would have been overly nervous the whole time. Axiom I think your route is the one I’ve decided in for now of watchful waiting. I’ll keep updating as I hate when I thread of someone having the exact same issue I’m searching ends with 0 resolution.
Dealer that did nothing actually didn’t charge me anything shockingly too, but yah, after 7 years with this van, my first time taking it to the dealer was the last.
