Default non resistor injectors wired to a resistor box

I have a 90 CRX with a 93 Integra XSI B16 engine in it (just instsalled). I replaced the Dist with a 90-91 B16 dist. but did not replace the injectors. I wired them thru the resistor box as the old ones were. I have since found out that the 93 injectors do not use a resistor box. Will this hurt to keep these this way or do I need to switch to the old style (90-91) injectors???

I dont think you can run the obd1 injectors with the resistor box. youll need the obd0 ones.

is it possible to rewire these and not use a resistor box, that way keeping the obd1 injectors?

I sold that engine, so I will have to purchase more ....That is no problem. The car runs like it is but not well. Time to buy em and replace.

Thanks for your info.

If I rewire them, can anyone tell me how to by-pass the resistor box???

I am also running an obdo ECU so I dont think I can wire it for the obd1 injectors??? Please tell me if I am wrong.

Yeah, you can still use the OBD0 ECU with the OBD1 injectors... You basically just need to get rid of the resistor box.

I think if you connect all the red wires on the box together that cancels it out or some crap.

Or basically take the power wire that goes to the box and just splice it 4 ways or something like that.

So if I understand correctly, I take the power wire coming from the ECU going to the resistor box and run all four yellow/black wires from the obd1 injectors to it, solder them in and I am done?????

If that's what it says on that link I posted above...

I'm keeping my OBD-0 (peak & hold) injectors when I do my OBD-1 conversion.

All your doing is bypassing what the box does. It makes high impedance into low impedance. It supplies power to the injectors so when the ECU sends the signal it completes the circuit. So if you just hook all of them to the power source than it will be high impedance which is what OBD-1 was.

I will give it a try and post the results! I wish I had kept a set of the OBDO injectors that I had. Wish me luck...

I would just keep the obd0 ones in, that way you can always upgrade with some cheap dsm injectors.

OK...I took out the resistor box and took the black/yellow power wire coming from the ECU that went to the resistor box and wired it to all 4 of the yellow/black wires coming from the OBD1 injectors......it now works great.
