Check the little injector return hoses on top 1st, as they don't last
too long, and may look fine, yet are split on the bottom or something.
I don't keep as much supplies in my trunk as Brian, maybe I should, yet
I do have extra injector return hose in the trunk at all times. In a
pinch, you can try to cut the hose a little shorter and re-attach,
though buy new hose soon afterward.
