Fuel Injection vs CARBS, Advise to my 1.8L Options

[cbenitah]

So I'm wondering what the best way is here...
My 1.8L is acting a little bit funny when it comes to acceleration, it feels like all the power is gone. I can go from 1000 RPM's to 4000 without more increase in speed than maybe 10MPH in 1st gear.. and i IDLE at 1200 but thats when the engine is warm, otherwise its around 2-300..

Someone said its the fuel injection being bad from the begining, and that i should remove it and put Carbs on it..

Anyone has an opinion about this question?

if your injection is at fault, i vote fix it. last december i bought a car that hadn't been driven for 20 years, original 1.8 engine. long story short, we replaced some injection hose, seals on the oil filler neck, and other bits, and since then i've put maybe 2500 miles on it. no problems, starts every time and gets close to 20mpg. not bad for an old fossil, dug out of a garage and dusted off.

if you're going to troubleshoot l-jet, i highly recommend this site: manuals.type4.org, it was of great use in the process of elimination.
