Testing the functionality of my FI last night I decided to pull the injector leads one at a time to see if it made any dirfference in the running condition.
Pulled #1 and it kept running like nothing had happened. Pulled #4 and it died. Restarted it and pulled #2 and it kept running like it had been, pulled #3 and it died. Is this indicitive of something? I expected maybe a stumble, but not for it to die. |

Make sure the injectors are plugged in correctly.
Since the 914 engine is batch fired, it fires in pairs. If one of the pairs is not working AND the injectors are plugged in wrong, your symptoms can happen. Ken |
