I'm in the middle of chasing a "typical" warm rich idle problem and I noticed my MPS part # is different that any listed on Paul Anders' website. Is this really critical? I ask because i've been spending the past 2 weekends looking for vacuum leaks & electrical shorts/breaks to no scuccess. (but thats not to say i'm totally convinced i dont have any). Now i'm confused as to where i should direct my attention.
I have a '73 1.7 and currently my MPS is: Bosch # 0 280 100 007 VW # 311 906 051 C RUSS (oh yeah, i am confident my timing and valves are set) |

Thanks guys!
I know one of the P.O.s was the owner of a VW shop and it wouldnt be the first time he did a "clever" substitution. I'll definitely start shopping for an 049. Whats the best/ most cost effective way to go about shopping for an MPS? I'll have to wait and see how much that improves the situation. In the meantime i'll continue my vac leak & short checklist, just to rule out anything else. The resources on this bbs continue to amaze me. I dont know how long it would have taken me to figure that out on my own or via word of mouth. Thanks again. RUSS |
