I.M.H.O. (In My Humble Opinion), manufacturers are trying to save every 
cent they can, and don't expect to have many people 'mess' with their 
wiring.  If someone does mess with the wiring (like a service tech), and 
if they short something out, it's their fault, and not the manufacturer's,
:-)
  But for _MY_ F.I. system, I know I will be messinging w/ the wiring
a lot, and if I short something out, it's my fault and it will cost me.
So, I will put in lots of fuses (cheap insurance), cary spares, and be
careful not to short anything out.
  I don't think there is much of a need for manufacturers to fuse the
injectors, but I _do_ think there is a need for me to fuse my injectors.
If there is a need for you to do it, well, that's up to you.

  Have Fun!
