The leak was with the hose not the mps itself

I picked up a 1.7L d-jet a year and a half ago and these are all the things that were not working correctly I would recommend checking...
MPS Fuel pressure regulator All the air and fuel hoses Injectors Screen in the gas tank Deceleration valve AAR Throttle position sensor Fuel leaks are dangerous and air leaks suck, make sure the hoses fit tightly. |

for one the forum user that owned the car before me has checked most of this and as have i at this point.
injectors are working, screen is clean, AAR is getting cleaned and is working correctly right now. tps is working fine and is electronically ohm set now all fuel hoses and fuel pump are good, air hoses are all replaced except for the mps which is my current problem. decel valve doesn't seem to have any affect on anything that i have been messing with because im not driving it and whether it is on or off it has been idling the same way. Fuel pressure regulator is working although it needs to be set perfect but i haven't got a gauge yet. ive checked quite a few other things also but those are the things you mentioned and of all of them the MPS is showing biggest problems right now. i do have another mps on its way though. |

which direction does the AAR valve go. top hose on the driver side and bottom towards passenger or other way around? any pictures? ive seen them both ways and i would guess by the way the thing is made it doesn't matter but i noticed it kinda affects the hose on it.

well take this for example
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-7318-1182293808.jpg) and this one (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-4367-1213573724.jpg) so which way is correct? does it work both ways or just angle it the best way for the hose? |

with the mps unattached the car runs a little strange fluctuating in rpms quite a bit. with it attached it runs decent although after a little while of idling probably 10 minutes it will eventually drop rpms slowly and die.
the mps hasn't been 'tuned' yet because it was tampered with but as it sits at the moment it will flood also. i know tuning the mps or tightening the screw will cause it to get less gas so it will probably fix that but why would it just eventually die after a little bit? |
