Help needed after bhg

Hey All,

Happy to be on the forum here, hoping someone can offer some advice. 87 mk3 7mge, r154 swap. Put back together after bhg, car sat for 6 yrs waiting for me to get to it. Will fire with ether, but not on it's own fuel. Replaced injectors as i thought they could be clogged beyond help. Seller insisted that the ones I purchased were correct, but resistance reading is way off. My old ones read 2.4, Haynes manual gives specs as 1.5 - 3.0, new ones are reading 5.0. They said that all if theirs read 4-5. I'm not sure what else to look into. Jumped the diagnostic port to ensure pump is working (was replaced a few years ago anyway). Also, with the new injectors on, after cranking, even with key off, it sounds like at least one injector is constantly spraying fuel into cylinder, until I pull efi fuse. I'm about to just take my old injectors to a shop to see if they can clean them out on the bench.
