Cooler weather in Upper Michigan... Yesterday when it was warm, my '73 1.7 D-Jet seemed to idle well. Today, a bit cooler out. The car starts up and idles for 3 minutes or so (when cold) and then dies. I can start it up and if I keep the idle up I can keep it running, otherwise it will die. I'm assuming the CSV quits at a certain point and It's still not getting enough gas to keep running? I thought it might have something to do with the cold weather? Anyone else familiar with this? I will check the d-jet site (pbanders?) site now.. |
