injector resistance off?
OK, I have looked through everything and determined that my 88 TII has red top high impedance injectors, but when i measure with an ohm meter I measure about 6ohms. this should be higher right?
I am looking to install 720cc injectors, these are measuring out at ~1ohm
so just checking on the size resistor i should use.
thanks,

If the meter is working right...the 720's are no good in my humble pie opinion. Just saying "someting is not quite right with a one ohm reading".
Stock 88 injectors should be reading 12-16 ohms just like you read in the FSM.
Stk 86- first half of 1987 injectors measure 2-4 ohms and I usually see 2.2 ohms or 2.3 ohms on those.
If you put low impedence/resistance injectors in that 88 you'd want to use a resistor similar to the solenoid resistor package in the early 86- first half of 87, which is a six ohm resistor for each injector.
Stock 88 injectors should be reading 12-16 ohms just like you read in the FSM.
