Man, that would be a long drive from L.A.
Hey did you pay full pop for your ConZult software? My hacker self looked around the net just to see if there was a bootleg copy I could 'evaluate' before committing.... no luck. But I did find this link that may be useful for those with OBD II ECUs. There is apparently a free linux-based utility on the web here: http://freediag.sourceforge.net/
perhaps it could be useful.
I'm going to Pep Boys to see if I can score some injector connectors that I can dremel out and replace my old ones.

Yeah it would be a long drive, Z1 sells injector plugs for 10 each and somebody else I saw sells them for like 6.50. Check em out before you go playing with plugs that might fit even worse. They may have some that cross other cars. Come on guys, Tell us what other cars have our injectors.

I ended up going to the dealership. The replacement harness was only $36 for (3) connectors, total of $72 +tax for both sides. Only 12 bux more than ordering online and I don't have to wait. I was surprised the dealer was semi-reasonable.
The trip is: can you believe all three injectors connect to the wiring harness with only TWO wires?!?!?! How the hell....
Anyway. I was also told to check for corrosion on the coolant temp sensor cuz it can trigger codes if it misreads the temp and adjusts the fuel mix. Agh! Crash course! I'm learning like a madman. Rock on.
