OK, I was really happy, I'm 495 days into the "Tune UP" and repair of the D-Jet fuel injection unit. After completely rebuilding the engine, Injection components, Wiring harness for the D-Jet, align boring the Type IV case, The plastic bags were empty! Yay for empty parts containers! I made the decision after check the electrical out to add Gasoline........
The Bosch Pump leaks out of the seams as soon as it pressurized like a sieve, fuel all under the pump. That wonderful little gem of a NLA fuel pump. Any suggestions, O-ring and seal kits? I would like to stay with the Bosch pump but am I the lone ranger on this? Is the alternative to just run a single outlet pump (Which one?) and just run the return line direct to the pump? I was really hoping after 9 years to have my wife's 914 running by the weekend. I appreciate all the help and suggestions out there. John |

Bucking and kicking sounds like timing is way off , or plug wires are off It doesn't "pop" out of the exhaust or intake when it tries to run. I poured a couple ounces of gasoline into the manifold and then tried to start it again. It ran for about five seconds then went back to the bucking and kicking. So my next check will be the injector points. The injectors themselves were just tested and calibrated by Marren Fuel injection in Connecticut, so I'm sure they are working. |
