I got my 914/6 back up and running with the 2.4S conversion parts, including the MFI!! God, I LOVE the sound of MFI at full song! With the S cams it has the same scream a 917 has.
Friday morning I was running the car, tweaking some little things when the injection pump died. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) I only have one S pump, so I was forced to remove the MFI from my six. It will take 6 to 8 weeks to get the pump rebuilt, and I have to have a way to get to my new job on Monday. So, under duress, I installed my set of 40IDA3C Webers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) I rejetted them to the settings mentioned on the Early S registry for a 73 2.4S motor. Main Jets #32 Venturis #135 Air Correction Jets #180 Idle Jets #60 Emulsion Tubes F3 Now I have to deal with all the carb crap.... like clogged idle jets, out of sync air bleed screws, UGH!!! Has anyone found a way to keep the idle jets from plugging up? I have been working on the car off and on since Friday, and have cleaned the idle jets 5 times. I still have to lower the accelerator pump stroke to lessen the black smoke under initial throttle opening. The car runs ok, but it doesn't run like the MFI does.....

K&Ns? There's your problem. The dirt particles they let through are easily the jet-clogging size. Get yourself a proper OE air cleaner and the correct pleated paper air filter. Less filter area, bigger pores = more air flow. More dirt, too. And more of that macho "look at me" noise, as well.
