I ohmed the injectors on my '90 Q45. They are all 2.5 - 3.2 ohms, except a single one at 12 ohms. This reading was taken hot.

From what I've read here, 7 of them seem all very low. Has anyone else had readings like this? Does this mean all seven are bad (argh!)

That's very weird indeed. The reading on my new injector out of the box was 11.8 with the other 7 used ones at 11.9 to 12.1 ohms. With low resistance like that they must pull down a lot more current than the .5 amp Dennis said is normal @13 volts. Are they all OEM? It shouldn't be the heat; but I think I'd try again when they are cold. Good Luck
