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? |

Regardless of the vac adv or retard, the centrifugal advance in a stock distributor will keep the advance at 27 degrees. Not sure pulling out 5 degrees timing would change the afr that much.
I will check my decel valve opening values tonight. I am running a 2.0 Bursch exhaust. The 02 sensor is located about 10" downstream from the collector. |
