OK Here goes!!!! The wife and I decide to take a nice mountain drive Sunday after my mechanic (Porsche race car certified) gave me a clean bill of health for my '74 2.0 liter. Drove about forty miles through some of the most beautiful country (near ski slopes), and decided to stop for early dinner. Fabulous outdoor dining, temp about 76, several adult beverages, you know!!!! Got back iin the car to leave dead fuel pump
Left car at the only garage in town, daughter came and got us. Next morning, called Nate in Sacramento(THANKS, NATE!!) He overnighted a fuel pump directly to the garage, DUMBASS installed it, and called to tell me it was ready, but it didn't run just right Long story short, had car towed to my guy (sixty miles), who discovered that DUMBASS had not only kinked the fuel line, but didn't reinstall the fuel filter!!!!!!Who knows what got into my injectors Update soon!!!!!!!!! NOW WHAT??? After three weeks in the shop, running down all the FI components electrically, I'm getting no pulse to the fuel injectors. We even tried replacing the computer with a known working one. HELP!!!!!!!!! |

Grasshopper... a be so wise as to SHUT UP and go check all the things everyone said. You are going off half cocked and all that will get you is alot of wasted money on parts you did not need.
First off check the T2 sensor. Second check all the grounds...again. Third... how do know that the trigger points are good... did you test them... if you did test them again. Check the fuel like was suggested. Check the fuel lines again... how did you verify fuel pressure. If you do not have a gauge on the rail... get one. THEN... report back. |
