the 5th injector is electrically powered right? so if it does give more enrichment on WOT something must control it other than the connection through the thermotime switch  :undecided:

yes, the ide switch as I posted earlier ;)
the thermotime switch only provides the earth path, the live path is provided either by the feed from the starter motor, or the 'throttle open' feed from the throttle switch.

when turning over on the starter the thermotime switch also gets 12v which switches on an internal heater and cuts the earth path after a few seconds.  My last post I mentioned that under testing it seemed like the earth path would only be interupted when the heater wire is getting 12v which would result ina bit of throttle enrichmnet at all times.  However it could be all my thermo switches are bust or I was missing something when testing...
