my CEL results lol
7 freaking Faults hahaha
P0401- EGR Flow insufficient Detected
P1201- Cylinder 1-Fuel Injector Circuit Electrical Malfunction
P1202- Cylinder 2-Fuel Injector Circuit Electrical Malfunction
P1204- Cylinder 4-Fuel Injector Circuit Electrical Malfunction
P1205- Cylinder 5-Fuel Injector Circuit Electrical Malfunction
P1206- Cylinder 6-Fuel Injector Circuit Electrical Malfunction
P1509- Idle Air Control Unit Electrical Malfunction
so yea... maybe i should just sell the car hahaha.. this sux... anyone have any input on the injector thing? u think the injectors are fucked or the connectors are bad? and the EGR thing... u think thats prolly jsut clogged cats or something else? ive never had this many codes pop up before hahaha

Hmm, that's a good point, though it could still be the things that I listed. Maybe you let it run really low on fuel one time and it grabbed a bunch of crap from the bottom of the tank and screwed up your injectors? Wouldn't explain the other stuff though.
I'd say start by cleaning the EGR with carb cleaner... Perhaps the IAT stuff as well. Maybe try Sea Foam through a vacuum hose.

well me personally i never let my cars go below 1/4 tank... as for the previous owner i have no clue lol... and i tried the seafoam stuff once already and nothing came out... no big white cloud no fancy smoke show or anything
so idk... im thinking this is gonna start costing too much money lol

I'm not 100% on this one, but I believe someone once told me that the EGR actually puts a small amount of exhaust back into the intake to make sure there isn't too much oxygen in the air/ fuel mix in order to prevent detonation. If you have a problem there, it definately sounds like you could be in for some expensive trouble if it's not fixed soon. Mike and Devil would probably be able to give you the best advice on this one...
