I keep getting the codes P0205 & P0305 on my OBD II scanner but have no clue where to start in order to effect a repair to clear the codes and have a decent running vehicle. I am a disabled guy who retired from the Fire Department a couple of years ago and spend some time in a wheelchair so if I have to stand for too long I'm screwed. It took me a week to change brake shoes and pads on the van but it's my only mode of transport. If anyone can help me I sure would appreciate it.

I'm not sure of the litre size of your engine, note the litre sizes on the above picture. My info says problem with number 5 injector. Whether that is a wiring circuit problem or the injector itself? You could swap the injector in question with one of the others, see if the problem follows the injector. You could use a noid lite on the injector plug, see if it pulses.

Thanks for your advice jd, I have a 3.0L 6Cyl But I see what you're saying. I'll try out what you say. Did I say in my original posting that this problem only occurs when the engine is hot. It idles ok from cold but idles poorly when warm and runs like excellent when cold but like super sh***y when warm and the "service engine light" comes on steady for a while but then flashes.

the injector or wiring circuit may fail when it gets hot?
