Injector grief

[eon172]

Although I've virtually given up pi$$ing about with these few spare injectors I have whilst looking for a spare working one to put in, I thought I'd check on here before binning them.

All of them read between 14.3 to 15.4 ohms but are simply not firing, can they fail and still read a valid resistance?

I'd be checking the wiring to the injectors just incase.

Are the connectors receiving power?

 

[bloke]

how are you testing them?

I was suspecting the connection at first, until...

A simple process of elimination by swapping with a known working injector and then separately with a confirmed working injector supply (neighbouring cylinder)

Can you still get genuine ones online for cheap?

I just did the full set when I had an injector go, for a touch over 100 quid it was a no-brainer really.
Half hour to fit and it ran better than ever after.

Yeah, I already ordered a genuine replacement (£33 quid or so from renparts on eBay). It was more about confirming my spares are truly dead before I sling'em, and there is no way to revive them given the resistance readings seem within the normal range.

Well the new injector is in and working fine. Although now got a little bit of hunting, about +200rpm at idle now....[emoji19]
