I do have a Bentley, and a Haynes. Haven't seen a testing procedure for the electrical connections to the injectors, though. I would assume that I can check resistance once I disconnect the ECU and connect a ohmmeter across anywhich terminals on the big shoe socket (harness connector to ECU). But which terminals I don't know. Guess I'll check my proficiency in hieroglyphics by sorting out the wiring diagram. Thanks. I'll keep everybody posted. BTW, I am getting a pressure gauge, so I can get a reading on that fuel pressure. Doubt that's the issue, because the delivery rate is right on, and there's no leaks/fuel smell discernable by my big sniffer or my peepers.
