Default Measuring injector resistnce bc no start

No start on my fresh mpfi conversion obd0 injectors. Do I have the millimeter on the right setting? 7 or 7.1 showed up on all four. how much voltage should be at the injector clip with the ignition on? I'm getting 1.62v

that's messed up. injectors are 2-3 ohms for low impedance and 11-12 ohms for high impedance. 7 ohms is ... meaningless. Well not really, means the injectors are bad, but makes you wonder why all 4? guess I'd try some OBD1 injectors and do away with the resistor box? what ECU?

multimeter is set correctly.

V DC should be 12V at the injector clips (battery voltage)

what does your meter read if you short the leads together only? e.g., just measuring the meter's and its' leads resistance?

Those are likely high impedance injectors (OBD1 / 2)
High impedance read about 8ohms.

Do the injector resistor box delete and you should be fine.

looks to me like high impedance injectors - at least the injector clips are for high impedance as they are gray - low impedance injectors have white clips

I was going to point that out yesterday as it didn't make sense that the OP stated he is using "OBD0" injectors.

I'm using the pm6 ecu with obd 0 objectors. my injectors are fine. I tested them again this time though with both of my hands and they all read 2.2 so I think there good. the base reading on my multimeter is 0.2 to 0.3 I bought a small camera that with fit in the plug hole so I'll take a look today.

did you test the voltage at the plugs again (both hands this time )?
