I can seem to get my 914 to not run Rich. I have checked Injector spray paterns, replaced cap,rotor, points, condensor,plugs, plug wires. and belive that my vacuum routing is correct. I question the integrety of the MPS. if i remove the vacuum hose that runs to it and clamp it off i get no change at all in performance. I was told by a co-worker that i should drill out the riviots and check to see if it is gummed up. I just removed it and am getting ready to take it apart, when out of curiousity I ohm checked the teminals and this is what i got : pin 8 - pin 10 350 ohms, pin 7 - pin 15 90 ohms. is this normal? does anyone know of any way to check the MPS. Or could any one do a quick ohm check on theese terminals to let me know if that is a correct reading? any help would be greatly apreciated.

Valve adjustment ????, compression test???? Is the plug oily??? It aint the trigger points, as they fire the injectors in pairs, you only have one dead cylinder.
you got spark and fuel, Could your spark plug wires be crossed??? A wrong wire to a plug, can allow the car to run poorly, so double cheak that. firing order 1432, note the #1 plug on the dizzie should be at the notch on the dizzie body, cylinders are labled on the shroud. i made this screw up before, oh well, live and learn. hope it is something simple dave |
