Had the 73 1.7 with original D Jet up on jack stands and did all new brakes .
Calipers, braided lines, rotors, pads, full fluid flush. Thats all I touched ... So excited as the test drive went great . running great and now stopping well. Cleaned her up and went to move her ... hard to start ( a first) rough running. Got 4 good sparking plugs ( Timing light test) . checked fuel pressure ... at 28 lbs needed air (liked having the pcv disconnected . for some odd reason i saw lots of oil coming out the pcv and when I revved it much more . shut it down. checked the oil and I am UP a quart + ! Very gas smell and "feel" ... I say yup its fuel !!! thinking injector(s) ??? I shook something (crud) loose and have a stuck injector(s) ? Your thoughts much appreciated |

^^^ I did just that , Thanks
The cold start had a bit weeping ... I am going to just bypass that . 2 of the injectors are flowing gas !!! Ordered 4 reman valves ( told they will be "matched" ) I have new good filters .. should I be doing more ? Guess it will be a fill of oil and run just a bit ... then dump that and fill again with the good oil (Brad penn) & a finger or 2 crossed that no damage is done |
