'71 D-jet will not idle when hot. Poor throttle response coming off idle (acts like a carbed engine with no accelerator pump). Idle speed screw has almost no effect on RPM. Once engine gets going it pulls strong and smooth to red line.
ECU has no mixture adjustment. Valves, dwell and timing are correct (although dwell floats a bit with rpm, probably worn distributor). I have tested MPS and pressure sensor II and they meet B. Anders specs.
Cannot move any air through MPS by blowing. Throttle switch checks ok but I switched to another throttle body and switch anyway, no change. Replaced all vacuum hoses. Does anyone out there have any ideas? Don't say switch to carbs! "Not gonna do it, wouldn't be prudent" (#41).
