Trying to help a friend out by doing some troubleshooting while he is out of town, no, really, it’s for a friend not one of my cars. Really. Yes, really.
The backstory on this thing is it’s a 1973 1.7 with its factory fuel injection system, it has the number of electrical issues that ultimately will need to get tidied up but as of right now it will briefly catch every three or four full revolutions of the engine with the starter and then immediately die. The MPS looked original and I was skeptical that it was in good working order so, lacking a vacuum pump at the moment,, I disconnected it and the engine seemed much more willing to start but didn’t quite catch. I have a rebuilt MPS from Jeff that I’m going to loan The car’s owner but obviously the fact that it seemed more eager to start without the MPS suggest that the MPS is an issue. Does anything else come to mind when the car seems to be more eager to start/run without the MPS? My 1.7 ultimately was well behaved and ran great with very little fiddling, so looking for some ideas to pass along here... I have forwarded the troubleshooting guide on Rennlist... Thanks! |
