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? /the guy that have to drive in the slow lane with rest of the seniors (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) |

Find another "mechanic", a real one. This guy sounds like an ignorant bozo who wants your money, any way he can get it, and this seems like a good way. That's $1500 less in the conversion fund. A lot of cars used this system for more than 20 years, including 280Zs, 928s, and many other performance cars. The Cap'n |
