1974 1.8 with L- jet. Been playing with a wide band air fuel meter and noticed that when I lift the throttle the AFR goes to max value on the gauge. I thought it was supposed to go lean. I checked the throttle position switch and it checks out fine. Going to check the wiring harness next.
What else should I check? Decel valve? |

AFM is literally the barn door. it attaches to the air filter box and precedes everything. However, the car he's running here has two vac ports for the distributor. one for retarding and one for advancing. That's what I was showing on the page I posted. what that means is that there is progressive vac advance or no advance + vac retard and no retard.
Honestly, though, I have no clue what AFR should be expected from an L-jet at elevated RPM with a closed throttle. Without this ref we're just theorizing and having conversation for the sake of conversation lol... |
