Just tested my MPS and the result was..., This is getting good... maybe we can all learn something Options

Good!!! Go figure!?!

I've been chasing this rich condition for a while, and I was betting that the MPS was toast.

I measured today with a vacuum pump. Evacuated to 20 Hg - did not drop below 15 Hg within 5 Minutes (tested according to Paul B. Anders D-Jet site specs) only dropped to 18 Hg during that test. Also evacuated to 15 Hg and it held for 5 minutes, only dropping 1 Hg (based on spec found here on this forum).

AA's site says that it should hold 15 Hg indefintely. I have to assume that mine is good from a vacuum standpoint. Can I get a second opinion on that so I can be positive?

I also tested the MPS coils according to Paul B. Anders D-jet site specs. I was nearly right on the money ohm wise.

All said, I have to assume that it is time to move on to the Fuel Pressure - I'll measure that tomorrow. In a strange way, I was kinda hoping it was the MPS. I am soooooo ready to be over this rich mixture issue. Soooooo ready.

Ok... maybe I spoke to soon. I started to look closely at the part number.

My part numbers are as follows:

Bosch: 0 280 100 019
VW: 022 906 051 A

B. Anders site says it should be:

Bosch P/N: 0 280 100 049
VW P/N: 022 906 051 E
(For 1970-1973 1.7L)

Funny thing is, his site makes no mention of either of my part numbers. In addition, I google my part numbers and found absolutely nothing for either (in all combinations of spacing). There was a used MPS for an early (1970-1972) 1.7 that recently sold on eBay - seller listed the "correct" P/Ns: 022 906 051 E and 0 280 100 049 - I guess mine is completely wrong based on my investigations.

Does anybody know what MPS belongs to? I know that they need to match with the ECU, and I am assuming that mine doesn't.

WHAT A BITCH!!! This is getting ridiculous! I'm ready to go off!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)
