Tracking a performance problem on my stock 74 1.8 FI and would appreciate any thoughts:
Sluggish in 3rd and above and wondering if fuel is the issue. starts and idles well,good compression, recent tuneup and valve adjustment although I did it myself... 32psi at idle, 29psi at 3000rpm measured at the CSV, volume only 1.0 liter perminute, no visible kinks or bundle in the tank. Any thoughts? I will be double checking the vacuum advance and timing just in case... |

Spec is 50 - 62 L/hr .... 0.83 - 1.03 L/min .... based on your measurement, you are well within the required specification for volume.
