Trying to do a compression test on my ka24e, but I'm not sure what the "fusible link" to the injectors is. According to the FSM, it says to "disconnect the fusible link for injectors." IS that just the red connector on the top of the injector?

Soooo.... The funny thing is that 67 people have viewed this with 0 replies... Took a stab in the dark, and I guess I came up okay...

I diconnected the harness from each of the injectors, at the injector (I believe it's a grey piece on the harness side that clips onto the red injector outlet).

Pulled all of the spark plugs out.

Grounded the coil wire.

Screwed the compression tester into each cylinder starting with #4, and turned the engine over until it pumped itself all the way up.

147-150# all the way around, guess I've got good compression
