Ed,
I shall manually determine the resistance. These are advertised as hi resistance/saturated, but I shall verify. The old ones were low resistance so if these are high, I get to remove the in line resistors, and the multiple failure points of the connections.
My local auto electric/injector guy was kind enough to flow test my old injectors for grins and mentioned the slimmer injectors are usually more efficient. Of course, I really don't know what he means by that. He did say they were a newer design.
Thanks for the comments.
Oh, btw, is anyone in the market for various old injectors....my online research shows the two Ford 1600cc injectors are not made anymore and are quite the rage and sought after for high end auto use <g>
All the best,
Chris

Interesting, Chris, don't recall seeing that shape in an injector before.
One thing you might want to do is put them on a volt ohm meter to measure
their resistance - to determine whether "Saturated -8-16 ohms" or "peak and
hold" - 2-4 ohms type.

Subject: [FlyRotary] New Injectors for Mistral intake
The new injectors as recommended by the Mistral Arrow test pilot arrived today. I installed them and they seem to physically fit, even though they look significantly different. I am rerouting some wires and hopefully making things better and more reliable (even though I should only be changing one thing at a time, I have done more).
Here is a picture of the four different injectors now have. The lower left is the new Mototron INJ-GAS-006 (L107), upper left is the old primary I was using (550cc?), upper right is a standard Mazda injector I got online before I knew it would not work with the Mistral intake. The lower right is the old secondary at 1600 cc. As soon as I get things wired back up, I will try cranking 'er up again and see how many calls I need to make to Tracy....DOH! Why am I always making major engine modifications when Tracy leaves for CO?????
Just thought y'all may be curious to see.
All the best,
Chris
