Message The resistance of the injectors increases as they heat up but still should be in the 10 -14 ohm range. If your engine was warmed up then 2 and 3 are at the edge and could go out soon or a year from now? If the engine was cold then they are worse than what you determined and 2 and 3 are worse than indicated when warmed up. When new injectors will ohm at about 10.8 when cold (about 75F) and when warmed up they will ohm about 12.

Do a cold ohm test and compare to a hot ohm test. Unfortunately your 93 TT has the old style injectors and connectors that are a PITA to unplug @#%&*.

Since 5 is DOA it needs to be changed so you have a decision to make as to change the 1 or upgrade?

When you unplugged the connectors did you notice any green corrosion in the female half? If yes that will not help the injectors with a long life since the corrosion means highere resistance and different current flow to the injector. When I upgraded my intectors I found green corrosion in the connector and corrosion of the copper wire for about 2" away from the connector that had to be cut away for the new style connectors.
