My 75 is running rich and fouling plugs after just a few miles. One of the members spent several hours helping me check and figure out the FI a couple of years ago and that made a difference (both on the car and how much I value your experts here). I have 2 extra 'brains' is it time to change that and check? One is from a '75 and one from a 74, does that matter? Both are for a 1.8 which my car is. Fuel injectors are rebuilt as well as the cold start valve. Most vacuum hoses changed. Thanks for any input.

The injectors were rebuilt a couple of years ago and installed into the car when they came back.

The injectors were rebuilt a couple of years ago and installed into the car when they came back. You still might want to test them, Cold Start valve too. Checking the squirt pattern, volume and to see if they leak. Poor pattern or leaking would sure cause a rich issue. I'll see if I can find a post when Tim helped me do that. IIRC we jumped some wires turned the key and I operated the AFM flap while the injectors sprayed into jars. Again, IIRC you do 1 side at a time. You can compare the output, pattern and leaking with one 5 second squirt. BTW is your 75 a true 1.8 (1756cc) or has it been upgraded to a 1911? Clark |
