If nothing else, thats a a nice looking ride you got there. Is it a 4? I miss my 4. Such a carefree ride. As for your dilemma, we'll need info: What engine? compression? fuel pressure? Ignition working? Is it FI? If so, what type? |

Oh no..quess your'e not going on the Halloween run now.
Don't give up ...... it could be something simple but it does sound like a sucked valve. Time to go 2.0 ...keep your D-jet. I have an extra seat for the run if you don't get it fixed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

I was recently troubleshooting a problem with Babydoll... the injectors would buzz when you press the accelerator but the engine wouldn't run. Kicked over with a shot of ether so there was spark, and the fuel pressure was around 30. Turned out that the plug that goes to the FI points in the distributor had come loose. Plugged it in and she started right up.
