Car is a 73 2.0, new TPS, new FI Points, new TS1, existing TS2 (its the 017), all intake runners, hoses, gaskets, and PCV are new, injectors were cleaned and serviced by witchhunter. Also all parts are correct for the 73 2.0. I put a 270ohm resistor in too. Car seems to run lean at idle (I have an air fuel meter).
I had the wrong TS2, because I replaced it with what I thought was the correct replacement. Upon further review, I put the used 017 piece back in. The car had been sitting when I bought it, so I dropped the motor to take care of a few problems, and I refurbed the FI while I was at it. Car seems to have good power and pull hard, but it doesn't seem to idle quite right. It oscillates between, 1000 and less than 500, while the air meter reads lean. Air bleed and the knob both effect idle, but I can't get it to stabilize or richen up on the meter. Also, I have a euro-race header and MSD. Should I play with the resistor or the FPR to richen the car for these parts? |

Have you checked for vacuum leaks at the usual spots? No vacuum leaks is a must and that stands out too....you really have to check using some sort of either WD40, propane etc.
