I have a 74 2.0. I just finished changing engines and I am having trouble getting the engine to idle normally. I set the dwell and timing and it is idling at over 2000 rpms. I don't hear any vacuim leaks. I can't figure out why I can't get this thing to idle correctly. I have used a 75 2.0 distributor for many years and it worked fine. Could this be the problem? How do you tell a 75 distributor from a 74? When I remove the vacuim line from the pressure sensor, the engine idles better but seems to start burning rich. I'm baffled. Any suggestions?
I took the car for a ride even with the high idle and it seems to run great. If I can just get this thing to idle right, I can move on to other issues with this car. |
