  Thanks fella's

    The 5 Volt rail is derived internally in the ECU for the logic =

    The injector driver transistors would use a signal from the logic =

injectors to ground.  This is a simplification, but not much of one.  =
There are plenty of basic electronics textbooks and application notes =
out there if you scratch around a bit.  Enjoy!
