Haltech injector problem

Just put in my rebuild and the injectors dumped tons of fuel then stopped working and blew the 10 amp fuse.
I replaced fuse and it worked for a secound and popped it again.
I replaced it and it now only runs on one primary injector.

I tested the clips and found the light blue wire to have some grounding...I unpluged the harness to the haltech and it then has no ground so it lies in the haltec.???

looks like I have a bad primary driver?
Wonder if that is y it blew in the first place.

Is this possible?

Can I piggy back the primaries on one driver? RC1000's

Will it run bad because of sec injection?

Thanks.

Well, it looks like I've got a chicken and egg problem...the injector is shorting out and my driver is acting up. The wiring is good right to the haltec.

Thought RC injectors were top of the line..??

Oh well, time for new ones.

RC is the most overrated supplier i've ever seen! They rebuild injectors, they dont sell new ones.

Leave a set of cleaned and balanced stock primaries, and just get a new set of brand new 1600cc injectors from somewhere else. Have them flow tested before you install them. Its just peace of mind. I'd go a step further and have them re-cleaned so that i am sure they werent sitting in a shelf for a year or 2.

Really...I've lost confidence in RC Now.

I have 1680sec and the rc1000 Primaries.

I wish I could put in 1680's in the primaries but, I could barley get the rc1000's to idle well.
I guess each of the four drivers is good for one low or two high impedence injectors.
Looking at 750 High Imp for the primaries so I can piggyback them at a low load without using the questionable driver.

I saw somewhere you can buy extra drivers for the haltech but, I cant load up their site for some reason to find out.
