I have finally put my 1974 2.0 back together and i have it running with the original fuel injection. I have solid compression on all cylinders and had it out on the freeway on Sunday up 90MPH.
I am now fighting to fix a couple little things. The engine after I take it out of gear and let it go to idle, will dip to a really low rpm and then recover. I think this is related to the decel valve and many say that it should just be removed altogether. AA wants 198.00 for this part and wow that is a lot for this little part. What says the folks here and please feel free to point me to any previous debates, I searched but did not find a specific thread. Cheers, Larouex |

I have read suggestions that the MPS diaphragm gets more "wear" if running w/o the decel valve. Unconfirmed recollection, if the factory put it in, maybe the default mode should be to include it. Get a used one for much less than new.
