Do you have any idea which wire would be the ground wire if the colour of the 2 wires were green and white.
My guess would say the green one would probs be the ground wire.

Since im probably unable to test which wire shut off the engine best, would i be best to kill the power or the ground.

thanks
You need a good wiring diagram for your car. When you have that, with patience you can test disconnecting wires without cutting them by disconnecting individual wires in the OEM connectors. You'll want to test because even the wiring schematic will not give you all the info you want and so disconnecting something that seems to affect one system might turn out to affect two or three systems.

The OEMs did not make the cars or their wiring diagrams with modders and hackers in mind! Hahahaha!

Sorry I can't offer more than that.

Have you searched this forum for others who have completed injector kills?

My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
