Holy cow, if it runs that long with the MPS disconnected, I'd think there must be a massive vacuum leak below below the butterfly in the throttle body to keep it running as long as it did. I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that it would die sooner with the MPS connected. It sure sounds rich in that video with the MPS disconnected (as I would expect), but it should run better when you connect the hose. Unless the other end of that hose isn't connected where it should be? That hose should be pulling vacuum at idle, which would pull on the diaphragm of the MPS to lean it out.
If you start it just like that last video with the hose disconnected, then reconnect the hose before it does, does anything change as you reconnect it? |
