so i just got done pulling my 89-92 style injectors off my car... it was worse than i thought:
1: 42.8 ohms
2: 12.0 ohms
3: 12.1 ohms
4: no reading (broken coil)
5: 29.5 ohms
6: 12.0 ohms
so my car was basically randomly alternating between having 3, 4, and 5 working cylinders. Which, given the fact that i had to basically floor it in 1st gear just to get to 20mph, isn't really a surprising discovery. the weird thing is that at Goon's house (october 2008, so, just 5 months ago), we double-checked all the resistance readings and all of them were at 12.4 ohms i think.. so i was terribly surprised to see that three of them failed in 5 months! i'm definitely not blaming Goon tho.. there's no way anyone could have known that was going to happen.. i guess i just got really unlucky. But hopefully i can put these red ones in and not have to touch them again for a good long while. Thankfully all the injectors I got from AJcool2 are at a very nice 10.9 ohms +/- 0.1ohm, not to mention the VE/VQ style injectors seem to have better reliability.
