74 1.8 Got power to pump/builds good pressure, got spark,double relay seems ok, ---engine starts on starting fluid. injectors sprayed when I jumped to the battery, this is driving me crazy! the resistors show continuity, but not any resistance. could this be the problem? any help would be greatly appreciated especially ecu pin #'s & stuff- - I think I'll go burn my haynes manual now

how did you check the double relay?

the double relay supplies voltage to the injectors with key on and the AFM open, the ECU grounds the injector in order for it to fire when it gets its signal from coil collapsing

the resistor pack should measure between 6 and 7 ohms (across each indivdual resistor)


each injector should have a value of ~ 3 ohms, hope you didn't fry them if you hooked them directly to 12vdc with no current limiting device

Resistors checked out good at 7 ohms. Injectors good. what kind of voltage should i get at the injectors? I have an extra computer & injection harness that i swapped out already with no success. the harnesses are slightly different though. i think one has the leads for an altitude compensator. other than that,they're the same......... right?
