Z-Gad Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 When wiring in new injectors to the wiring harness, does it make a difference which "prong" receives the + signal? Thanks in advance, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boyd Posted January 10, 2004 Share Posted January 10, 2004 Damn, I was about to ask the same question! I have been told both that it does and doesn't matter, depending on how old the injectors are. Something about newer injectors not requiring correct polarity. To me, since an injector is basically an electromagent, it would matter? I am not wiring up my injectors until I found out for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeap, tried it this afternoon and you are right, it makes not difference on polarity. Strange though, it just seems like it would? On a side note, finally found some injector clips that actually fit my injectors and wired them up. As soon as I get the silicone removed from the plug on the injector, I should be ready to go!

The pintle moves out of attraction to the magnetic field - it cares not for polarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
