Fixed 3800 "hesitation".. fixed the lack of secondary functionality all together

As the title states, my secondaries wouldn't come online, I tried everything and it was simply a bad resistor pack OR the wrong resistor pack. I don't know if this (in the pic)was the one off the n/a or the turbo parts car, I got them mixed up during the swap. but they have to both be the same series (both cars were s4).so i wouldn't think it mattered?

86 and early 87's were the only ones that even had the resistor pack. Also, I'm almost certain that they are the same. Anyway, it is the same for all 4 injectors so if it was wrong it would affect the primaries as well. I guess the other one was just bad.

I had the same issue with my first 7. Haynes (and perhaps the FSM) as the solenoid resistor. Pulled one out of an 86 and fixed the issue immediately.

Just fyi it's been awhile now.. 4 or so months and the problem did not re-appear, replacing the bad resistor pack was the real deal. in this situation
