Injector question

Driver side each injector is 22 ohms. Passenger side 16 ohms. Anybody else seen this or know why??? Fluke 89, yes I can use it. Original injectors, 89 tpi 350. 350k miles.

There is NO WAY you have original injectors in an 89 car, with 350k miles.
They simply do not last that long. My OEM injectors were 17.1 ohms,

Re: Injector question

I own of the few original owners remaining. If your not the original owner, your injectors were replaced. They do not last with the E10 fuel.

dumbjuan with the 383, tuned motor, and you have OEM injectors. OEM injectors were never 22 ohms, They were 17.1 ohm. Learn how to use a DVM.

Re: Injector question

^^^ I really don't think name calling is a thing to be doing on this board.

I have seen the factory 89-92 injs hang on for 300,000 miles.

It CAN happen but its stupid rare.
