I have a 2000 Chevy Cavalier also. I had the same problem, which ended up being a head gasket leak. Have a compression test done to confirm. The cylinder heads are aluminum and warp easily. Have it shaved down to make it true, then replace the head gasket. Do it yourself cost: approximately $110 for a head gasket kit. Good luck.

How do you get fuel injectors on a 1990 jeep Cherokee Laredo to stop leaking you replaced rubber rings?

Typically that is caused by a little buildup of deposits around the inside of the injector tips. Sometimes you can put a can of injector cleaner through the system and clean out the deposits. Use the injector cleaner as described on the can. It may take a couple applications to clean the injectors. Sometimes that doesn't work and you'll need to replace the faulty injectors. Good luck.


What happen when you pour fuel injector cleaner directly into a throttle body injection?

You completely waste the injector cleaner. It has to flow through the ports which supply fuel to the engine to do its job. That's why the directions tell you to put it into the gas tank in a certain ratio to gas. It mixes with the fuel in the tank, flows through the system and out of the injector ports.

There are many possibilities. You could have clogged injectors, or even an intermittently bad fuel pump. try running injector cleaner through your car. Fill the gas tank to the top and put one bottle of injector cleaner in. Next time you fill up see if it solves the problem. If not, have the injectors cleaned, or the fuel pump and or filter looked at.
