alright here's an odd issue im in the middle of right now...

I'm in the process of wiring up a resistor box, for my 450's and when the key is turned to on where fuel pump primes etc. I only have power at one wire( checked plug and wires) It's not even one thats suposed to have power by the pix(hondata site)... Am I missing something? I dont have a multimeter but am usin one of those screw drive/pens that light up when it is put on a power source when grounded out.

i'm tempted to just go by the pix where the dots are on the inside of the clip that indicates which wire to cut/should have power.

help/info greatly appreciated! -jeff

Found this, seems like a good way to go about it.>>

I'll keep searching for ya...

since i havent started the actual wireing process yet i think im gonna do it this way...off to the j-yard tomorrow.

but still makes no sense as to why i dont have power in the right spots and power in one wrong spot...anyways thanx lionel and keep on looking!!

Not sure exactly what wires you were testing, but the injectors themselves may not actually see a full 12v(not 100% on that.) They also may pull power from gound so you would only see voltage when they get the signal to fire. I'll keep ya posted on whatever other info I find, but that resistor box idea seemed a little easier to me.

Ah these wires. the red dot signifies the wire clip to test.


the Red dots here signify where I should supposedly have power..and I only have power at the top left corner on the clip in this pic below.

well i just went ahead and wired it up like the pix. didnt have the time or money/want to snag the parts from the j-yard to have it removable.

she starts up, and sounds like its got a cam with a MASSIVE lope. im about to take a video and itll be up on my build thread.
