If you go close to the injectors, you will be able to get the wire that feeds only the injectors, further up the harness is where it feeds other things also. Mine was the same way.

Yeah it powers certain things before the injectors and things after them too. So im not sure if cutting off power to the injectors will throw a CEL. I may need to sit down and stare at the schematics for a while and come up with a bypass that will let the power stay on to all the senders and sensors but cut fuel injector power.
