So I got my 1970 1.7 still injected finally ready to drive. It starts right up with and runs fine, for about 20 - 30 seconds, then it starts to idle rough. The idle will drop to almost 0 then surge to about 1500 - 2000rpm. If I slowly roll onto the throttle it revs up, but if I quickly press the throttle it stumbles and almost dies then revs up. I am going to get a vacuum gauge soon and check for leaks using the method in Tech Tips 700. Anybody have any ideas of what to look for? Could it be something other than a vacuum leak?. I have done a valve adjustment, replaced points, rotor, cap, plugs, injector seals. Still have not checked timing or dwell. I will also double check the MPS.
