So I'm finally going to get a chance to work on my 72 1.7 with d jet a little bit after having it mostly together for the past several months (Been away at school). Any way I just put a new motor in and while trying to hook back up the wiring harness and all of the vacuum lines I'm not sure everything's right. It will start ok, but it won't hardly rev at all and it's running extremely rich. Is there a particular sensor I should take a look at, or do I just need to trace everything back? I've only got a couple days before I've got to take off again so hopefully I can figure it out pretty soon.
