Rough running, strong noxious/gassy smell, accel missing, trouble starting, rich fuel, engine light 200 1993

Hi Tony:

The 'noid light (an LED and some resistors, by the looks of things) plugs into the injector harness. If the light pulses during cranking/running, the electrical components driving the injectors are good. It is a good way to look check for ECU failure as well as other components in that pathway-- the classic failure mode for the -561 ECU is to fail to ground the injectors.

I understand iPd sells the specific 'noid light for the Bosch, and I'd bet that you could borrow one as part of the tool loaner program at places like AutoZone-- you can borrow a kit here in Canada from Partsource (like AutoZone, only twice as expensive with worse service).

Cheers!
