Hey guys here's my dilemma, I installed and double checked everything thouroughly, my first question has to do with spark plug power.

Why is the coil pack power connector 5 prong but the connector is 6?

Why do all the connections on my connector to the ignitor turn to grounds (using a test light) However when my key is on the on position they all are just dead??

I double checked all my wiring and got the main one (black/red / blue/red / black/red) all hooked up together so i figure theres power there, and there is but it is very minimal? PLEASE all suggestions would be helpful right now!

BTW I just installed my drop resistor and checked injector pulse and there is pulse at the injectors

You just responded to yourself?!

Anyway, you shouldnt have to touch anything else on the harness if that was the correct harness for that motor. Only modifications to the harness is supposed to be the 2 plugs by the battery, extend MAF wires and the dash plug.
