ha! Funny. Ok. This is what I thought.

Either I have a large load on that part of the circuit or something
else is hinky.

For the record, the wire I'm tracking down is supposed to supply the
ECU (Motronic) with constant B+. As it stands, I think I have it wired
in on the load side of a relay that is triggered on when engine is
running.  I assume this "constant B+" is used to maintain some kind of
ECU memory relative to the DTC, adaptive circuitry.
