Help please! My 74 1.8 Djet dies at an idle, it runs okay at higher rpms but the tach just goes to nothing and it dies at idle.
The problems is it is intermitten (sp?) Sometimes it does, sometimes not. It will start up right away and there is some gas smell. Ayone familiar with this problem? thanks. I am planning a longer trip but not with this problem! |

other sources of vac leaks. injector seals (easy to renew) and the phenolic spacers/gaskets at the intake runner to head. the runner to plenum hoses are pretty crappy too. you shouldn't need the clamps. i can't figure out what the hell the story is with the engine compartment fan hoses. for now, get them out of the way and cap the j-tubes so you have room to work.
