    Unless the injectors are unique and different for each cylinder you should be able to replace the one and if nothing changes put the old one back in and put it in the front one.

      Lee,

      The first thing I would do is look for is vacuum leaks around the runner for #1. Any loose ,cracked , or broken vac.hoses. Also check for intake gasket leaks.

      These are the two most likely culprits.

      Kia has an online troubleshooting and tech helpline. Search for it. I will get the address for the site from work tomorrow and post it for you.

      OK?
