The fuel injector connector is by the alternator....

If this is multi port(big letters on top of engine), the injectors are in parallel(1-3-5, and 2-4-6)......reading the resistance with a meter should show 4 ohms....anything higher there is an open.....reading zero is a short......need a schematic to know which wires to probe....mice are known for building nests under the upper plenum and eating the harness to the injectors.....not saying this is your problem, but the ohm check could lead to that....

A shorted injector or harness, would cause too much current flow, and the injector driver in the ECM(computer), would shut down the injectors....
Ok, but at that connector would any activity be visible while cranking.

I'll slap my buddy around for telling me it was related to fi
