hello .. I noticed in the past couple days I have some engine problem when I cross 60 mph on the highway .. yesterday I smell gas inside the car and a bad bad idle and a strong vibration in the engine .. the problem come and go .. the check engine came on and throe this code .. P0203
I notice the fuel economy goes bad a full tank just last for 210 mph .. I go to work shop the guy say you have an open circuit on the line for injector 3 thats what cause the car to run rich on bank 2 .. he say he most check the wire from the PCM until the injector ..
any experience .. any advice .. I won't fix the car or touch it until I hears you responds or advice ..

waiting and thank you ,,

Search google.com for the codes and an explanation of what they are.

yryr999 check out the following website for your p0203 code.

As for the other code, it is directly connected with the p0203 code indicating that you are running really rich on that side due to a stuck open injector. p2196 is the O2 sensor code. i dont think it would matter if you took off the injector plug due to the fact that they always have power and only open when grounded. hope this was helpful.

Could be time for new injectors. If one is bad, I'd swap them all.
