Can you give me a little more detail by what you mean a bad ground? These are grounded through the PCM so they have a power feed wire coming from the PCM and then a return wire to the PCM. If they are just dumping fuel, it could be a wiring issue or it could be the PCM.

You can run your own wires but it may be easier to just replace the harness. If you run your own wires you want to go from the PCM injector control for each injector and then they run back to the service control. Just make sure you pick up the other items that share that ground control.

Let me know if you have questions. Thanks

Hi,

It could be an O2 sensor running erratic because water intrusion into the wiring harness check the O2 sensors for DTCS.
MIL Illumination, DTC's P0037, P0058, P0131, P0132, P0133, P0138, P0151, P0153, P0159 I'm attaching information on how to fix it below. With the miles you have on your car it might have carbon build up on the injector nozzle holding them open. Try cleaning the injectors with an cleaner tool that hooks directly to the fuel rail with good injector cleaner. Please let us know if this information was helpful and what fixed your.

Thank you
