Are you checking at each injector with the harness un-plugged? Otherwise you
are seeing other stuff. All the injectors are wired in parallel.  So with
all plugged in the ECU is seeing an ~4 ohm load. At ~12 volts that is ~ 3
amps. If you have the wrong injectors at only 8 ohms each that becomes a 6
amp load which can toast the ECU. The air cooled engine used lower
resistance injectors but there was a resistor in the circuit.

Subject: Fuel Injector Terminal Check

I had a no-start problem that corrected itself.  I'm going through and
checking what I can to see if there is anything out of spec that may tell me
what happened so I don't get stranded 500 miles from home.

I checked the resistance of the electrical plugs at the fuel injectors.
 All four were 8.1 ohms.  According to a ProTraining manual i have, it
should be 14-18 ohms.  It's interesting that they are exactly 1/2 of what
they should be.  I'm not sure what this means and the manual doesn't say
what to do if the resistance isn't within range.
