Hi all, it’s a FI diagnosis I’m after, please help.

1973 1.7L standard FI system.

When hot after a long run, I have a really rubbish tick-over and car wants to stall.

I thought it would be MPS as mine has already been opened by a PO, but it reads 94 ohms on the outer coils and 398ohms on the inner terminals. It seems to hold vacuum too (only tried sucking on it, don’t have a gauge) so can I rule that out??

I really want some further checks to do as it’s running so rich I can see smoke at a hot idle and it’s difficult getting it to pull away without bogging down (only when hot - it’s great when cold!!) So it’s a hot only problem I’m having.

Thanks for any help.

I'm just saying George should contribute here. He wants everyone to come to him. Not cool. Let us keep it here for everyone.

Well he is trying to run a business. What smart businessman trying to sell anything doesn't.

It's fine to participate to gain business exposure, not to try and extract people away from here. Very different. What ethical business man does that? Enough on this, sorry I brought it up.
