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 |

Thanks for all the info and an update from me .
Installed the reman injectors today, and did bypass the cold start, . got a cheepo oil filter and filled with cheepo 20/50 . Starts up great , runs good and no noise or "weid stuff" I was afraid of due to the gas in oil. Ran that just a bit now dumped that and on to the 2nd cheepo filter. will run that just a bit as well . then change to a good filter and oil. SO relieved that apparently no damage done (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) |
