As Brian said, wrong fuel pump relay.  My '86 was like this
too.

Have you tested the 5th injector per Bentley to see when it
shuts off?  I think it's supposed to stay on for a max of
10 seconds or so.  IIRC, the thermo-timeswitch is what
controls the operation of the 5th injector, so maybe
*that's* the culprit.
