ok so had a few problems with my old car
CLICK HERE
found it to be the 4th injector
i can get the injector of another 206 that is being broken near me
my question is; are all the injectors the same? what i mean is, is injector 1 the same as 4? so if i took injector 1 from the other car to replace injector 4 on mine will it work?
thanks

If the garage were just going off the code, I would assume they got it wrong

I'm sure I've heard injector fault codes can actually be crank sensor faults.

It could be. I'd change it to be on the safe side.
Second hand injectors could be just as bad as yours. You'll be better off buying a new set.

i doubt crank sensor would cause it run like s***
it should be easy to find out which cylinder is missing and work from there, swap plug and injectors to isolated the problem before buying any parts!

Right
First off has the injector fault code gone? As Injector four is the one closest to the cambelt (french did the order backwards to the norm) and NOT the one closest to the gearbox, that is number one
Before changing it, move that injector to the one along and see if the fault code moves, if it does, then you know to replace the injector. As long as its the correct colour/engine size you should be fine
Any thing else?

thanks addaz
i cant get the fault code read again because i had it done when i took it for an m.o.t and the car has no tax, m.o.t, or insurance, i had to get a days insurance to get it there for the m.o.t and i dont want to buy another days just to get the codes read
i need to know what injector im moving because the garage said 4 but when i checked the code myself it said 3? should i just move 3 to 2 and see how it runs?
wont it still run s**t no matter where i move the injector?
looking at the engine head on is injector 3 far left or far right?

Neither, it's one of the middle ones.

About £70 from the dealer and less than £30 for the ones that you need to replace in a couple of thousand miles.
