[V8] Giving up?Not so fast...New Discovery

[Paul DAnneo]

Hello All,
Thanks for everyones input about not giving up just yet. I haven't. 
Car is moved to a suitable location for me to work on. No longer at a friend house. '91 V8 Lago. 154k.
 
Car starts and idles fine. Poor acceleration. Was able to drive to new location. Runs better down hill.  
Car gave 2231 code, but went away. Then flashing cat's light, also went away.
 I decided to pull the electrical connectors to the injectors while it was idling. Pulled # 5 not much change, if any. Pulled #6. Car sputters and dies. Same with #7, sputters and dies. #8 just like #5. Guess what. #'s 1 and 4 car sputters and dies. #'s 2 and3? No change. Running on 4 cylinders? 
 
So, I connect an extra injector to connectors 5 and 8. The injector fires. Power there. That was the last thing I was able to accomplish before going home. 
Tomorrow after work I will pull wires to see if they are firing. 
 
I love forward progress. 
 
 
TIA,
Paul
