Would fuel injectors still work with painless wiring system

I just bought a 1985 2.8l v6 Camaro and looked under the hood and saw that most of the wiring was shot. So I am going to buy the painless wiring switch panels .I just wanted to know if I use the switch panels for the fuel pump and ignition system to start the car would the fuel injectors automatically kick in or if not what do I need to do.

Re: Would fuel injectors still work with painless wiring system

So, you basically want to rip out all the existing wiring harnesses, and replace them with aftermarket wiring harnesses that add a switch to the various circuits?

You better be REALLY GOOD at reading wiring diagrams if that is your intent.

In which case you should be able to read the relationships between the injector circuits, and the other circuits on which you will be (re)constructing and/or creating from scratch.

I was thinking I could just send power to the fuel pump and power to the ignition system to start the engine, but without the kit the when I turn the key on the engine does spin over. All I need is the engine to start I would worry about everything else later

No problem.

You got the answer though, right?

Won't work, need a car/ engine/ specific harness.
