Howdy. I have a new to me 1974 1.8 with the l-jet. Currently I'm sorting out some issues to get it running again. So the fuel pump comes on when the key is on. I realize this is not correct. I checked the afm and the contacts are basically closed at all times. The silver paper-clip arm that should be holding contact arm open isn't doing it. It is like there is not quite enough tension to bring the silver arm all the way back to open the contacts. The contact arm itself appears pretty straight if that matters. The fuel pump does act correctly if the afm is unplugged or the contact is manually opened.
Any ideas on the proper way to address this issue? or have a good reference that I just haven't found yet? many thanks for any info |
