A 1.7L doesn't need a ballast resistor only the 73 2.0L.
If the car is running great cold and runs like crap warm I think its running rich. Check the plugs for a reading to see. Your MPS could be starting to leak due to cracks, as it warms up it goes richer. Put a vacuum gauge on to see if it holds a 15hg vacuum for 5 minutes. If it slowly leaks down its going, if it drops like a rock its toast. Geoff |

If the MPS is starting to go the "loss" of vacuum is read to go richer.
High vacuum is 15hg which you have at idle, that vacuum pulls the diaphram against the idle stop. No vacuum is at Wot and that read as full rich. So loss of vacuum makes the MPS read richer... Car is cold when starting up and needs the mix to be richer then it get hot and the mix should be leaner. Geoff |
