My 1.8L 914-4 with stock Bosch L?-Jetronic FI after being stored several years started to develop a hard to start problem. When finally started would stall when I give the gas pedal any input to raise the revs. I suspect there was some kind of intake air leak and while fiddling around had a backfire which blew the AF meter which I had Pelicanparts repaired. After replacing the fuel lines with the stainless ones from Tangerine Racing and flushing out the fuel system with Techron the engine started to run normally for a short time. Now the engine can be started and fast idles at 3000 rpm but again any input to rev up the engine results in stalling. The idle adjustment screw at the base of the throttle housing is fully closed. Any suggestions on how to fix?

Yeah this is all wrong. You’ve got the wrong part. You capped off the Y where it attaches to the aux air valve/regulator inlet, but then left the AAV open… which is allowing unmetered air into the manifold.
You need to put all that back together. Watch my video again and go over to the passenger side and find the decel valve. That’s what we’re trying to get capped off. |
