I have a 75 with 2.0 GA engine. I replaced the CB Performance FI since it ran too rich and installed D-jet FI.
Spent the last year and a half going over everything.
Replaced all the hoses and gaskets, set the valves, MPS is good, etc. Compression is about 110 in all cylinders cold.
I’m down to a low vacuum reading of 6” hg. at 1100 rpm.
AAR closes but I plugged it anyway. Sprayed starter fluid all over the place and no surges.
Plenum was removed and all ports plugged, shined a flashlight inside in a dark room and no leaks.
With air filter removed I blocked off the throttle body with a sheet of rubber and a wood block and it still runs.
Idles a little slower at about 900 but strong like a tractor.
How does my engine run with the throttle body completely blocked off?
Before I pull this engine is there any chance there’s a vacuum leak somewhere else?
Can a modified cam give a vacuum signature this low? I know overlap is same as stock but lift might not be.
Any thoughts?
