Where are those damn secondarys?

Ok, My car does this weird thing were it dies corning, so one the only things we (the forum) can think of is the secondary fuel rail is loose. So, i was peeking around my engine bay looking for the rail to estimate the job (i understand its under some stuff?) but i should be able to see it right? anyway, than i asked a friend of mine and he said, no only the 89-91 have secondarys and my 88 n/a only has the 2 injectors you can see under the intake/throttle body? But i dont think so? Ok so after an argument, we decided to take a look at his parts car, he had taken the intake manifolds off. Nowhere could these damn secondarys be found? i dont get it, i coulda sworn i had secondarys, if i do where are they and how do i get to them??? thanks alot for any help

Your 86 N/A has 4, count 'em, 4 injectors. 2 primaries and 2 secondaries. The SECONDARIES are the only 2 injectors that are visible when you open the hood.

Your PRIMARIES are almost impossible to see because they sit right next to each other, under the TB and the upper intake.

If your friend had the intake off of his parts car, then the secondaries were gone too, considering the secondary injectors plug into the upper intake runner!

If you are STILL lost, I can provide pictures..
