Also not too tight.

Good luck

One (new) reads 101kΩ and the old one reads 99.8kΩ. And, there was no change at all when switching back to the old KS.

Together we've scoured the wiring issue, but nothing seems out of place - including the grounds. I'm going to check the low voltage connections on the coil packs again tonight, record a time-lapse record scan and graph it on the computer, monitor fuel pressure, and see what clues that brings. Oh, but I have this feeling something is being overlooked and how stupid I'm gonna feel when the culprit is finally found. But, at least the symptoms will be well documented - and posted here soze somebody else might benefit from "all this fun". OH! The damn thing has 3/4 of a tank of gas in it...A bit much to siphon, but I'm going to give that a try too, if all else fails. Then onto swapping ECMs? Just a thought.
