Default HELP! Big Problem here..

Okay here goes, I have a 1987 Honda CRX SI that is giving me trouble. When you cut the switch on and take a tester to test the wires going to the fuel injectors they light up, everything is fine, when the car is running the #1 fuel injector won't light up, its not working, power isn't getting to it to shoot the fuel. When its running you also can take the wire off the other 3 injectors and it will bog down real bad, when you take the wire off the # 1 injector it doesn't effect the idle at all. My guess is the ECU isn't completely working anymore. If that doesn't fix it has to be the wiring harness. Is there a fuse that I can take out that will reset my ECU? If there is where is it located? Please help!

bump for my boy.
Someone help him with his problem so he can sell the car and buy a swap for his 91 crx.

One question was all the injectors not working? Or just a chosen view? When the ECU was toasted..

you could do a continuity test between the injector and the ecu and see if theres a break anywhere. i would switch with a known good ecu first

I think thats what I'm going to do, I hope it will work if it doesn't.. I think it possibly could be my wiring harness, I'm REALLY hoping its not...
