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) |

Yes your clutch is too tight. Go under the car where the pulley is for the clutch cable, at the end of the cable there is the throwout arm, there at the arm you make your adjustments. Loosen up the double nut (or nylock nut) at the end of the cable. Go back and check your freeplay at the pedal. It is a little back and forth to get your 1/2" and then lock the double nuts down (tighten them against each other.
