Okay, so my '73 1.7 has been misfiring and without power. I checked the dwell, it seems fine. Plenty of spark on all plug wires. New plugs. Tried pulling the injector wires at idle, and on cylinders one and two, the car will die quickly when either wire is pulled. On cylinders three and four, however, this is not the case at all. The car will continue to run just the same (to my ear and according to the tach) indefinitely. I figured it must be either an injector issue or a wiring issue. I swapped the cylinder 1 and cylinder 3 injectors, and the problem stayed with the cylinder, not the injector. Shit.
So I replaced the wiring harness with a spare Todd sent me home with. Still having the same issue. Fuch! Any other ideas? A local shop told me I had a vacuum leak. Hmmm. Tried replacing the hoses, but didn't help at all. I've got an XR700 sitting here, thought I might install that. Figured if it did turn out to be the points, that would solve it. Basically just reaching. Help? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) Thanks! Cole |
