Posted August 29, 200618 yr comment_180293 The injector wires on my 77 are unhooked and unmarked. How do I know which go where other than guessing. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/21364-injector-wires/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 29, 200618 yr comment_180307 That's a good question. I learned years ago from a friend who owns a Z shop to mark the connectors 1-6. I can tell you which wires go to each connector. 1 (37-15), 2 (38-33), 3 (40-32), 4 (41-14), 5 (55-30), and 6 (56-31). Those numbers correspond with the ECU connector.

August 29, 200618 yr comment_180322 The injector wires on my 77 are unhooked and unmarked. How do I know which go where other than guessing.It does not matter. The early Z cars used "batch firing" which means that all the injectors open and close together at the same time.

August 29, 200618 yr comment_180331 It does not matter. The early Z cars used "batch firing" which means that all the injectors open and close together at the same time.You know, you're right. It's been a while since I did anything with the injectors other than chaning the connectors. Too late to edit my previous and useless post.

August 30, 200618 yr comment_180397 The injector wires on my 77 are unhooked and unmarked. How do I know which go where other than guessing.Look very closely at the covering on the wires... my '76 had VERY FAINT factory markings near each injector connector. It looked like they once had gold lettering... but after 30 years it was barely visible.

August 30, 200618 yr comment_180406 You can trace the injector wires through the ECU connector inside the car. I think you could use a small battery & test light to do that.

August 30, 200618 yr comment_180411 But, like Steve (zcarnut) said, it doesn't matter which one goes where. It doesn't even matter on the idividual connectors if you switch the two wires. I did the BMW connector upgrade on my Z today as I did on the 810 about 2 years ago. Just for drill, I intentionally mixed up the wires and it made no difference.

August 30, 200618 yr comment_180441 Well, after testing it that way, I did put them back in their original order. Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/21364-injector-wires/#findComment-180441 Share on other sites More sharing options...
