Probable cause

The fuel injector manufacturer's inappropriate guidance to use a 5-ampere circuit breaker in place of the required 10-ampere circuit breaker on the fuel injector circuit, which resulted in the circuit breaker opening, a loss of electrical power to the electronic fuel injectors, and a subsequent total loss of engine power.
