Hi there

Just put our 1970 914 back to fuel injection from carbs and it purred for the first 30 minutes in slow moving traffic but then it began to cough and then was quickly nearly kangarooing down the street. It was fine idling but trying to pull away and driving it, it sounded as though it was misfiring or coughing or not running on all cylinders.

What's the checklist for trying to solve the problem?

Thanks!
