What you are seeing with your analog volt meter 1800 1973

Chris,
Ron sure can put an idea into words. He knows his stuff, this old equipment will not work properly if contacts and connections are bad. Be sure to check out his web page for more insight into electrical stuff.

The trigger points on the distributor are one place where two injectors are affected by the same circuit. Your hardware checks out, it is very likely your connection for the trigger points. To repair your wiring you will need to get some female crimp terminals for the corresponding male connector. Get a small jeweler's flat tipped screwdriver that is used to release the individual broken crimp terminal from the trigger point harness plug. Slide the screwdriver into the top surface of the terminal inside the plug, this will hold down the retaining tab on the crimp terminal, then pull out the broken terminal from the plug.

I can not remember where I got my stash of crimp terminals years ago. I pay good money for people like Planetman to find such parts and sell them to me (gives good advice too).
If the terminals in the plug check out OK, I would consider pulling the harness off of the ECU and testing continuity of the trigger point circuit to the ECU.
