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.
