I get 6.2ohms on the box, is that the normal? It seems low to me.

The reason I asked about the injectors is are you trying to use saturated injectors with a box too? ECU might get low current feedback with that setup and throw the CEL.

Re: CEL #16
Total ohms in the system should be about 12-13...
The injectors will be 2-3 and the resistors should be 9-10.
Why if a resistor box is 6 ohms, does EVERYONE go to Radioshack and get 10 OHM resistors
??

So are they saturated or low impedance?

??Using 10 ohm resistors will not provide enough current to P/H injectors. This means that they may not open all the way.
Honda uses 6.xx ohm resistor boxes for a reason. This provides the correct current to the injectors.
Go check some OBD0 and 1 boxes. They will be around 6 some ohms.
Also whiterice's setup is the easiest way to add a resistor box. you only have to cut one wire and that is not even on the harness. You only have to move pins around.

I didn't cut any wires, and I didn't have the resistor box plug. I did have a dizzy plug though.
