Hey guys,
Troubleshooting my way through my 1.7L Djet one component at a time and I think it's time for a rebuild on my MPS.
Part # 0 280 100 003 (VW 022 906 051) which after much digging seems to be the right part for an early 1970 Djet (which mine is).
I followed the Paul Anders AMAZING diagnosis guide. The vacuum tests passed surprisingly well!
But then I used my LCR meter to check the calibration. And while I used a different meter than Paul, the numbers were significantly less. (I did correct his data down to sea level)
@PBanders Sea Level Numbers for 0"/4"/15" - 1.40/1.20/.74 @20H
My MPS --------------------------- 0"/4"/15" - .95/.84/.63 @20H
Even given a difference in LCR Meters my numbers seem significantly low.
Add to this, a PO had drilled out the center of the large adjustment screw so I could adjust the inner screw. Using Paul's method adjusting the inner screw made no changes at all on the LCR meter, nor in the car engine running.
If I read his site correctly my diagnosis is that one or both aneroid cells has failed.
Am I on the right track?
