Maybe if you guys have followed my threads you'll know that I am not doing the best with my engine.. the 1.8 is not feeling good at all! Today it jumped in 1st and 2nd gear.. can't really explain it in any other way.. If ANYONE of you San Diego Teeners have time and the knowledge, please contact me so we can meet up.. I NEED to know exactly what is wrong woth my engine.. Since in the past I havent got any straight answers at all.. It "could" be the FI switch to Carbs, It's prob, nothing.. OK! But all i know is that when I got my car it was fine... So, if you have time and want to take a look at it, it would be worth tens and thousands of (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

If I understand correctly, when in first and second gear the motor was bucking/surging...?

With old FI systems there is no high tech diagnosis just good mechanics. In your case it doesn't sound like an adjustment just a FKed part. The average backyard warriors don't have the experience to have a money saving experience, with FI. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif)
Not to mention there are sooo many posibilities...

One thing I can say, the last FI ball breaker I did in a 914, ended up being a gas tank full of mud. I am a firm believer, its a good thing for any 20+ year car, remove tank, and check and clean it, replace fuel filter. Even if it doesn't fix your troubles, one less thing to pay someone for.
