    The ecu grounds each injector to make it open so that would probably not be a good idea. If it is one cyl with the issue do what QWK D16 said and swap the injector to see if the prob moves with it. It could be a bad injector mechanically stuck open. Just be careful, you dont want to hydrolock your engine if it is straight dumping fuel continuously.

    cyl 1 and 4 are 180 out of phase from 2 and 3....if wiring is your issue then tying the grounds together will work just fine....it will not fix your issue but at least help you narrow down the cause of the problem...if anything your car will probably run stronger by like 2 hp lol
