So I'm finally going to get a chance to work on my 72 1.7 with d jet a little bit after having it mostly together for the past several months (Been away at school). Any way I just put a new motor in and while trying to hook back up the wiring harness and all of the vacuum lines I'm not sure everything's right. It will start ok, but it won't hardly rev at all and it's running extremely rich. Is there a particular sensor I should take a look at, or do I just need to trace everything back? I've only got a couple days before I've got to take off again so hopefully I can figure it out pretty soon.

Starting fluid/ ether works great for isolating vacuum leaks. go easy on it, espescially close to the intake as burning more than just a tiny bit in the combustion chamber can eventually cause mucho problems. SHold be a couple of bucks in a spray can at any auto parts store.
Best of luck! You'll have vacuum leaks in places that you never imagined! Konrad 72/4 |
