why do I have 12v at both injector leads??
the connector that clips directly onto the injector, I can't get the car started, on going problem.... so I checked the voltage on the injector harness as per Clark's garage, ignition switch set to on, and I get 12v at both of the points in the connector. Clark's garage says only one point should have 12v, does this mean a bad computer??
Thanks Kevin

I would say you have a few bad wires. Fairly common,happened on mine.

Clarks said only one should have 12V? is this while cranking or just on? If the car is not running or cranking then I think both are supposed to be 12V. When one gets a signal to fire it grounds out one side.
If only one side was 12V and the other grounded then it would be firing. 12V to both sides = closed (no current drop)

The DME actually grounds the circuit to fire as explained above.
