I purchased a 1974 2.0 non runner. The shop said FI issues. I've been reading the forum and found Daves site with trouble shooting the FI system. Alot of the checks are done at the connector end of the ECU connector.
1. Problem the ECU is a remanufactured unit and the cable is connected INSIDE the ECU. 2. What are the Values for just the individual parts? So far the Battery read 0.00 Volts, it's on the charger now. It started taking about 6 amps though, might be salvagable. All the Ignition wires are miles to long and cracked. The boots blocking the tin are melted and hard as rocks. Wire routing is non-existantant. They are all over the place running in and around, under or though everything. Fuel lines look to have been replaced not long ago. Ideas??? Thanks Smitty |

More poking around. The Copper Braided line in the dizzy has an extension wire added to it. It would appear that the Briaded line broke and someone soldered the copper wire to it. This doesn't look like a replaceable part. Hmmmmm
I'll be pulling the Dizzy tomorrow and cleaning and lubing the plates. Looks like alot of old grease here and there inside. Smitty |

Smitty that point plate can be replaced rather easily. rich at highperformancehouse in cali has some. they tend to stick after a while. If you pop the bearing out of it, you'll be able to clean where the 2 circular parts connect. |
