Fuel injector testing

Post by greekguy7 »

My '88 Grand Prix 2.8litre hesitates and stumbles badly under load, and cranks but wont restart when its hot. When it wont restart, I tested for spark and fuel pressure is 42psi when cranking. I was thinking its the injectors, so I pulled the plenum on the car and measured them.
On the front bank, they read:
11.1 ohms
9.5
9.5
and on the firewall side, they read:
12.2
12.3
12.1
I was hoping I find one or two injectors reading more like 3 ohms making the decision easier. Do you think the front 3 injectors are out of spec enough to cause severe hesitation and starting problems?? Thanks!

To throw out an idea, try swapping coils/ignition module.  If that doesn't work, then try unplugging the TCC on the trans (Located on driverside of trans facing the front of car)
