Hi. My son and I are starting to work on a '74 1.8 converted to a single Weber carb setup. The POs tore out most of the wiring and sensors.
A few weeks ago when the weather in MA was warm she started easily. Today it was 40 degrees F and we could not get her started. We had fuel and a spark. Would it help to get the choke rewired? I would think so ... I read somewhere about using a + connection off the coil?? Many thanks. [quote] |

Thanks so much. Lots to take in and process. I know the single Weber is not ideal but a good starting point ?! Sounds like I might play with connecting the choke. We will work on it this week. Sorry but as a newbie: where would I find the AAR valve wire? The bellows seem to be working fine ...

Sorry but as a newbie: where would I find the AAR valve wire? There are two main connectors on the relay board ... main body harness is a 14 pin connector on the forward end of the relay board. Off the rear is a 12 pin connector known as the "engine harness. This harness should have a white wire that was used for the AAR. |
