Big success tonight. She starts
and idles!
After confirming 12v at the black wire (for each of 6 injectors) I was suspecting the computer. I figured we'd test for continuity between the green wire to ECU and the Tan/red to ECU. After confirming the pin numbers I went into the passenger side kick-panel area...
(Computer removed.
)
Over the past few months of troubleshooting, at one point I was testing continuity to the ECU...and late one night intended to plug it back in - but never did. (Sigh...)
I feel like I've taken a night-school class in auto mechanics, tackling electrical components like I never have before. You guys are great, patient, knowledgeable instructors!
Thank you!!!
(Sorry for the wild goose chase around the back 40)
That said, now we KNOW the wiring is good to the injectors and a bunch of other switches/solenoids/connectors - or it wouldn't run!
Next challenge deserves a new thread...

She idles pretty well, but upon acceleration, it chokes. (Fuel/air mixture?)...
