no power to the injectors 200 1984

i will make this short and sweet. There is no power getting to any of my fuel injectors. I tested this by hooking up a volt meter to the wies going to the injectors and having the wife crank the the beast over. I think that it is just a lose wire but which wire that it is i do not know. the thing that killed my car was a bump on a dirt road hit at 20mph. So that is the lay of the land. thanls for the help.

Do the pumps run when cranking? Power for them and the injectors comes thru the 25 amp blade fuse up by the coil, and then thru the Fuel relay, which should energize during cranking.

The Fuel relay coil gets energized thru fuse 13. Either of those fuses can be OK but not making good contact.

Bad coil primary connections can kill ignition which prevents the Fuel Relay from picking (no pumps, no injectors, etc.)

My hunch is fuse 13, given the bumpy road scenario.

That link is for a similiar problem week before last. Not sure your car is even equipped with radio suppression relay but if it is and all other routes prove ineffective you might want to explore this option.

A little more info please. Are you getting spark out of the coil? There is a main 25A fuse under the hood beside the battery. Check it.

Spark at the coil, fuel from the pump (took off the fuel line and had the wife crank it) Engine spins just never catches. The only thing that does not happen is the power to the injectors. Everything and i mean everything else checks out. Hey i am going to go and spin fuse 13 see if that is the probablem.

Did the plug fall off the ECU? Right side of passenger's feet. Having strong fuel pressure kinda eliminates fuse 13 and the 25A fuse under the hood. You can double check the voltage on the injectors yellow/red - referenced to ground should have +12 when cranking. That comes from the same source that runs both fuel pumps and the idle air valve. The ECU supplies momentary grounds to the green/white injector wires to open them. The ECU gets power through a separate "system" relay, which also powers the orange wire to the AMM-- easier to get at with your meter probe.
